Notes and references
Ishbosheth: Hebrew “Josheb Bashebeth,” which seems to be another spelling of Ishbosheth. See the note at 2.8, although this is a different Ishbosheth.
the son of Hachmon: Or “the Tahchemonite” (see 1 Chronicles 11.11).
the Three Warriors: The most honored group of warriors. They may have been part of the Thirty Warriors. “Three” and “thirty” are spelled almost the same in Hebrew, so there is some confusion in the manuscripts as to which group is being talked about in some places in the following lists.
with … spear: One possible meaning for the difficult Hebrew text (see 1 Chronicles 11.11).
