This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





These strangers shall slay thee, which is a blemish to the honour of a king thus to be brought to the pit.



The pit; a usual periphrasis of death and the grave.



The deaths; in the plural, because of the many terrors, dangers, and wounds such meet with, the successive deaths, slain, drowned, eat of fish, cast upon shore, and become meat to sea fowl.



In the midst of the seas; if literally understood, thou shalt die as other common mariners, and be cast overboard; if figuratively, seas for great distresses, then amidst multitude of deep distresses thou shalt meet with more than one death, be often dying.
