[16:10]  ¹ tn Heb “caused seven of his sons to pass before Samuel.” This could be taken as referring to seven sons in addition to the three mentioned before this, but 1 Sam 17:12 says Jesse had eight sons, not eleven. 1 Chr 2:13-15 lists only seven sons, including David. However, 1 Chr 27:18 mentions an additional son, named Elihu.

[20:22]  ² tn Heb “from you and onward.”

[20:31]  ³ tn Heb “all the days that.”

[20:31]  ⁴ tn The words “some men” are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[20:31]  ⁵ tn Heb “a son of death.”

[20:37]  ⁶ tn Heb “called after” (also in v. 38).
