Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
fled before Israel: 1 Chronicles 19:13-14, Psalms 18:32, Psalms 33:16, Psalms 46:11
seven thousand: In the parallel passage, "the men of seven hundred chariots;" which difference probably arose from mistaking ן, noon final, which stands for 700, for ז, zayin, with a dot above, which denotes 7,000, or vice versa: the great similarity of these letters might easily cause the one to be mistaken for the other.
footmen: If these troops were as we have suppose, a kind of dismounted cavalry, the terms footmen and horsemen might be indifferently applied to them. 2 Samuel 10:18, horsemen
