from him
|

"or, of his. chariots. As 1Ch 18:4 seven hundred. In the parallel place in Chronicles it is ""seven thousand horsemen, a far more probable number. The letter [Zayin] zayin, with a dot upon it stands for seven thousand, and the final letter Nûwn,] noon, for seven hundred: the great similarity of these letters might easily cause the one to be mistaken for the other, and so produce an error in this place." |
