Footnotes
- 18 Heb “and he burned it in the Kidron Valley.”
- 19 Heb “on the grave of the sons of the people.” Some Hebrew, Greek, , Aramaic, and Latin witnesses read the plural “graves.” The phrase “sons of the people” refers here to the common people (see 766 עַם), as opposed to the upper classes who would have private tombs.
