The passage narrates David's consolidation of power: the tribes of Israel acknowledge him at Hebron, the elders anoint him king over all Israel, and a summary of his forty-year reign is given. It then recounts his capture of Jerusalem from the Jebusites, whom he taunts by referencing \"the blind and the lame,\" and his establishment of the City of David, followed by Hiram of Tyre sending materials to build David a palace. The chapter closes with two Philistine campaigns in the Valley of Rephaim, both won after David consults God \u2014 the second through an unusual flanking maneuver triggered by the sound of wind in the balsam trees. The distinctive value of the presentation is comparative rather than interpretive: by lining up the KJV, Septuagint, Tanakh, and Vulgate with Strong's concordance numbers embedded in the KJV column, it serves as a textual-critical resource for examining translation choices and manuscript variations across the major ancient textual traditions.","tags":["Book of Acts","Greek New Testament","Polyglot Bible"],"text":null,"title":"Polyglot Bible: 2 Samuel: 2 Samuel 5","tradition":"Hypertext Bible","translated_text":null,"word_count":2115}
