\v 25 Now Absalom had appointed his cousin Amasa to be the commander of his army, instead of Joab. Amasa, son of Jether, an Ishmaelite \f + \ft There is a question whether the word describing Jether should be "Ishmaelite" as we have chosen, or "Israelite" which is found in the Hebrew text, and which some scholars believe is a scribal error. "Ishmaelite" is found in a parallel passage (see 1CH 2:17, in Hebrew) and in other ancient translations of 2SA 17:25, and so it is included here. \f*. Amasa's mother was Abigail, the daughter of Nahash and the sister of Joab's mother Zeruiah.
\v 26 Absalom and his Israelite soldiers set up their tents in the region of Gilead.
