     * hired.
     # 18:4; Ex 14:9; Jud 4:3; 1Sa 13:5; 2Ch 14:9; Ps 20:7-9|
     * thirty.
       Thirty-two thousand soldiers, exclusive of the thousand send
       by the Maachah, are mentioned in the parallel passage (2; Sa
       10:6;) but of chariots or cavalry there is no mention; and the
       number of chariots stated here is prodigious, and beyond all
       credibility.  But as the word {raichev} denotes not only a
       chariot, but a rider, (see Isa 21:7,) it ought most probably
       to be rendered here, in a collective sense, cavalry; and then
       the number of troops will exactly agree with the passage in
       Samuel.  It is probable that they were a kind of auxiliary
       troops who were usually mounted on horses, or in chariots, but
       who occasionally served as foot-soldiers.

     * the king of Maachah.
       This variation exists only in the translation, the original
       being the same in both places, {melech m(8461)chah,} "the king of
       Maachah."

     # 2Sa 10:6|
     * king Maachah.  Medeba.
