Footnotes

  1. 1 Chronicles 12:20 tn Heb “he”; the referent (David) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  2. 1 Chronicles 12:22 tn Heb “for at the time of day in a day they were coming to David to help him until [there was] a great camp like the camp of God.” The term אֱלֹהִים (ʾelohim, “God”) is probably used idiomatically here to indicate the superlative.
