2 Tawarikh 10:16

10:16 When all Israel saw that the king refused to listen to them, the people answered the king, “We have no portion in David – no share in the son of Jesse! ¹  Return to your homes, O Israel! ²  Now, look after your own dynasty, O David!” ³  So all Israel returned to their homes. ⁴ 

2 Tawarikh 25:28

25:28 His body was carried back by horses, ⁵  and he was buried in Jerusalem with his ancestors ⁶  in the City of David. ⁷ 

[10:16]  ¹ sn The people’s point seems to be that they have no familial relationship with David that brings them any benefits or places upon them any obligations. They are being treated like outsiders.

[10:16]  ² tn Heb “each one to your tents, Israel.” The word “return” is supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[10:16]  ³ tn Heb “Now see your house, David.”

[10:16]  ⁴ tn Heb “went to their tents.”

[25:28]  ⁵ tn Heb “and they carried him on horses.”

[25:28]  ⁶ tn Heb “fathers.”

[25:28]  ⁷ tc The Hebrew text has “Judah,” but some medieval mss read “David,” as does the parallel passage in 2 Kgs 14:20.

[25:28]  sn The phrase the City of David refers here to the fortress of Zion in Jerusalem, not to Bethlehem. See 2 Sam 5:7.
