This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
The nations - הארצות haratsoth, “the lands; “instead of this word, which destroys the sense, ten of Kennicott’s and five of De Rossi’s MSS. (one ancient) have here גוים goyim, “nations;” which is undoubtedly the true reading, being preserved also in the other copy; 2Ki 19:17. Another MS. suggests another method of rectifying the sense in this place, by reading מלכם malcam, “their king, “instead of ארצם artsam, “their land;” but it ought to be מלכיהם malcheyhem, “all the countries and their kings.”
