(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)

This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

the master of his eunuchs. Hebrew. rab sarisayn = master or chief of the eunuchs; whence the title "Rab-saris" in 2Ki_18:17. See note there. Called "prince" in Dan_1:7.



children = sons.



and = even, or both. Some codices, with six early printed editions, omit this "and": reading "sons of Israel, of the king's seed" (or "seed-royal").



princes = nobles. Hebrew. partemim, a Persian word, found only here and Est_1:3; Est_6:9. Not the same word as in verses: Dan_1:7, Dan_1:8, Dan_1:10, Dan_7:11, &c.
