2 Tawarikh 6:5
Konteks6:5 He told David, 1 ‘Since the day I brought my people out of the land of Egypt, I have not chosen a city from all the tribes of Israel to build a temple in which to live. 2 Nor did I choose a man as leader of my people Israel.
2 Tawarikh 28:23
Konteks28:23 He offered sacrifices to the gods of Damascus whom he thought had defeated him. 3 He reasoned, 4 “Since the gods of the kings of Damascus helped them, I will sacrifice to them so they will help me.” But they caused him and all Israel to stumble.
[6:5] 2 tn Heb “to build a house for my name to be there.” Here “name” is used by metonymy for the
[28:23] 3 tn Heb “the gods of Damascus, the ones who had defeated him.” The words “he thought” are supplied in the translation for clarification. The perspective is that of Ahaz, not the narrator! Another option is that “the kings” has been accidentally omitted after “gods of.” See v. 23b.
