EXPLANATION

Verse 2. Ask; “not borrow,” as the Protestants translate; nor “jewels of silver,” but vessels, such as the princes offered at the dedication of the tabernacle, Numbers 7. The Sam. and Septuagint add “and raiment,” which they also asked for, (Calmet. 12:35,) according to God’s command. Calmet. 3:22. Kenn. 1. Dis. p. 391.
