This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
So neither I: Neh 5:16, Neh 7:2; Jdg 9:48; 1Co 15:10
saving that: etc. or, every one went with his weapon for water, Jdg 5:11; The original of this obscure clause is ish shilcho hammayim, which is rendered by Montanus, vir missile suum aquas, "a man his dart to the waters," of which it is difficult to make sense. It is wholly omitted by the LXX; and one of De Rossi's manuscripts reads, meshallachah al hammayim, "in order to send them to the water."
