Subjects in this Topic:
HOZAI is given as a prop. name in RV [Note: Revised Version.] of 2Ch_33:19, where AV [Note: Authorized Version.] and RVm [Note: Revised Version margin.] give ‘the seers.’ AVm [Note: Authorized Version margin.] has Hosai. If we retain the MT [Note: Massoretic Text.] , the tr. [Note: translate or translation.] of RV [Note: Revised Version.] seems the only defensible one, but perhaps the original reading was ‘his seers.’
