1 Chronicles 20:3 (King James Version)
And he brought out the people that were in it, and cut them with saws, and with harrows of iron, and with axes. Even so dealt David with all the cities of the children of Ammon. And David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
- And he
- 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 MSS 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 Judges 8:7 Judges 8:16 Judges 8:17 ; 1 Kings 9:21
