(18) Seven thousand men which fought in chariots, and forty thousand footmen.--Heb., seven thousand chariotry (rekeb), &c. Samuel reads, "seven hundred chariots, and forty thousand horse-men." Such deviations seem to indicate independent sources. We can hardly choose between the two accounts; but "horsemen" may be more correct than "footmen." (See 1Chronicles 18:4-5.)

And killed Shophach . . .--Abridged statement. (Comp. 2Samuel 10:18.)

Verse 18. - Seven thousand men which fought in chariots. The parallel passage has the men of seven hundred chariots. There could not be ten fighting men to a chariot. The reading of Samuel is more likely to be correct than our present reading. Forty thousand footmen. The parallel place shows "horsemen."
