Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
And he: 1 Chronicles 19:2-5, Psalms 21:8, Psalms 21:9
and cut: Instead of wyyasar, "and he cut," the parallel passage is wyyasem, "and he put them;" which is also the reading here of seven manuscripts collated by Dr. Kennicott. Sawing asunder, etc., of human beings, have no more place in the text, than they had in David's conduct towards the Ammonites.
with saws: Exodus 1:14, Joshua 9:23, Judges 8:6-7, Judges 8:16-17, 1 Kings 9:21
Reciprocal: 2 Samuel 12:31 - and put them 2 Chronicles 25:12 - cast them
