| II Samuel 5:16 | And Japhia, and Elisama, and Elioda, and Eliphaleth. | Eliphaleth. Septuagint reckon twenty instead of eleven. (Calmet) --- The Vatican copy has twenty-four, as some of the names have been read differently, so as to make two persons, and thus frequently a double translation occurs in the Septuagint; the one being taken either from Aquila, etc., or from some more early version, of which we know not the author. (Grabe) (Kennicott, Diss. 2:p. 404.) |
