TSNTyndale Study Notes:

18:8 more men died because of the forest: The topographical conditions of the forest apparently took away the numerical advantage of Absalom’s forces.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / personification

(Occurrence 0) more men were consumed by the forest than by the sword

(Some words not found in UHB: and=it_became there the,battle spread on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in face/surface_of all the=earth/land and,more the,forest to,devoured in/on/at/with,people than,what eating the=drought//sword/knife in_the=day (the)=that )

Here “the forest” is described as if it were alive and could act. Alternate translation: “dangerous things in the forest killed more men than David’s soldiers killed with their swords”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

“The sword” refers to David’s soldiers who fought with swords.
