ExplanationCommentary
Verse 12. Ten times, frequently. Menochius.—Places, among the Cuthites.—Whence they. Prot. “ye return unto us, they will be upon you.” Hebrew the second person is put for the third, which occurs in the Septuagint and so forth though they refer it to the enemy. “They come up from all places against us.” Bible.—De Dieu would translate, “return to us,” cultivate the friendship of Sanaballat; or “return home,” and leave off this work. The sense of the Vulg. is the most easy, and the best. Calmet.
