TSNTyndale Study Notes:

4:12 cut off their hands and feet: Displaying the dismembered bodies of Ishbosheth’s killers shamed them by denying them proper burial (cp. 1 Sam 31:8-13); it was also a public testimony of David’s innocence in Ishbosheth’s death.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-symaction

(Occurrence 0) cut off their hands and feet and hung them up

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_commanded Dāvid DOM the,young_men and,killed,them and,cut_off DOM hands,their and=DOM feet,their and,hung on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,pool in/on/at/with,Hebron and=DOM head (a)_man בֹּשֶׁת took and,buried in/on/at/with,tomb Abner in/on/at/with,Hebron )

These were symbolic actions to show contempt for the men.

Note 2 topic: translate-symaction

(Occurrence 0) they took the head of Ishbosheth and buried it in the grave

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_commanded Dāvid DOM the,young_men and,killed,them and,cut_off DOM hands,their and=DOM feet,their and,hung on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in the,pool in/on/at/with,Hebron and=DOM head (a)_man בֹּשֶׁת took and,buried in/on/at/with,tomb Abner in/on/at/with,Hebron )

This was a symbolic act to honor Ishbosheth. This could be stated explicitly. Alternate translation: “they honored Ishbosheth by burying his head in the grave”
