12Abner sent messengers to David on his behalf, saying, “Whose is the land?” and saying, “Make your alliance with me, and behold, my hand will be with you to bring all Israel around to you.”
13David said, “Good. I will make a treaty with you, but one thing I require of you. That is, you will not see my face unless you first bring Michal, Saul’s daughter, when you come to see my face.”
14David sent messengers to Ishbosheth, Saul’s son, saying, “Deliver me my wife Michal, whom I was given to marry for one hundred foreskins of the Philistines.”
15Ishbosheth sent and took her from her husband, Paltiel the son of Laish.
16Her husband went with her, weeping as he went, and followed her to Bahurim. Then Abner said to him, “Go! Return!” and he returned.

1 Samuel 25:44 names the one to whom Saul had given Michal his daughter, David’s wife, as Palti the son of Laish, who was of Gallim; 2 Samuel 3:14–16 has David say, “Deliver me my wife Michal”, and Ishbosheth take her from her husband, Paltiel the son of Laish, who follows her weeping to Bahurim. Both editions write the son’s name differently (발디 and 발디엘, Palti and Paltiel) and the father’s name alike (라이스, Laish), and both passages name Michal. The text does not say whether the two are the same man. This collection records the differently written names, and their fathers, apart, and does not decide whether they are the same man.

They are carried over from the tags on the Korean Revised Version, which are matched by name inside chapters that already have collected evidence, and a verse where the English says “he” carries none. All await human review. They are a separate list from the source passages above. An empty list does not mean the entry is absent from the text.
