This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

He then had him driven in the second chariot, the chariot which followed immediately upon the king's state-carriage; that is to say, he directed a solemn procession to be made through the city, in which they (heralds) cried before him אַבְרֵךְ (i.e., bow down), - an Egyptian word, which has been pointed by the Masorites according to the Hiphil or Aphel of בָּרַךְ. In Coptic it is abork, projicere, with the signs of the imperative and the second person. Thus he placed him over all Egypt. וְנָתֹון inf. absol. as a continuation of the finite verb (vid., Exo 8:11; Lev 25:14, etc.).
