(6) This is that Benaiah, who was mighty among the thirty.—Literally, he, Benaiah, was a hero of the thirty. (Comp. 1Ch_11:25; 2Sa_23:23.)
And in his course.—Heb., and his course. Ammizabad his son. Comp. the second clause of 1Ch_27:4. Here, as there, the LXX. and Vulg. give the sense “over his course,” as if Ammizabad were coadjutor with his father. The text may be defective in both places.
