This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Leave upon the mountains

The text here is disputed. Both A. V. and Rev. follow a text which reads: “Doth he not, leaving the ninety and nine, go into the mountains?” Rather join leave with on the mountains, and read, “Will he not leave the ninety and nine upon (ἐκπὶ, scattered over) the mountains, and go,” etc. This also corresponds with ἀφήσει, leaving, letting out, or letting loose.
