TSNTyndale Study Notes:

1:1–2:12 The book of 1 Kings opens by emphasizing the continuity of the Lord’s covenant with David (see 2 Sam 7:11-16). Solomon was the legitimate and divinely chosen heir to what God had granted his father David. The challenges to Solomon’s succession to the throne (1 Kgs 1:1–2:46) foreshadowed challenges to his kingship at the end of his reign (11:1-43) and the continuing struggles between Israel and Judah thereafter.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-words-phrases

וְ⁠הַ⁠מֶּ֤לֶךְ

and,the,king

Here, the word Now introduces something that happened sometime after the events narrated at the end of the previous book (see 2 Samuel 24:1–25). If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces a later event, or you could leave Now untranslated. Alternate translation: “Later on, the king”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

זָקֵ֔ן בָּ֖א בַּ⁠יָּמִ֑ים

old he/it_came in_the=days

The phrases was old and came into the days mean similar things. The author is using the two terms together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: “was extremely old”

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

בָּ֖א בַּ⁠יָּמִ֑ים

he/it_came in_the=days

Here, the phrase he came into the days indicates that David had lived very many days, so he was extremely old. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “he was advanced in age” or “he had lived a long time”

Note 4 topic: writing-pronouns

וַ⁠יְכַסֻּ֨⁠הוּ֙

and,covered,him

The pronoun they refers to David’s servants or attendants. If this is not clear for your readers, you could refer to them more directly. Alternate translation: “and his attendants covered him”

וְ⁠לֹ֥א יִחַ֖ם לֽ⁠וֹ

and=not get_warm to=him/it

Alternate translation: “but he could not keep warm”
