27a	1 Kgs. 2: 5, 32. 5 Moreover thou knowest also what ^aJoab the son of Zeruiah did to me, and what he did to the two captains of the hosts of Israel, unto ^bAbner the son of Ner, and unto ^cAmasa the son of Jether, whom he slew, and shed the blood of war in peace, and put the blood of war upon his girdle that was about his loins, and in his shoes that were on his feet.
b	2 Sam. 2: 23. 23 Howbeit he refused to turn aside: wherefore Abner with the hinder end of the spear smote him under the ^afifth rib, that the spear came out behind him; and he fell down there, and died in the same place: and it came to pass, that as many as came to the place where ^bAsahel fell down and died stood still.
