This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





Not in an authoritative way, as the greater blesseth the less, but in a general manner, i.e. he saluted him, thanked him for all his favours to him and his, and prayed to God to bless and recompense him for it. Thus blessing is put for saluting, 1Sa_13:10 2Ki_4:29; for praying, Num_6:23,24; for thanksgiving, Mat_26:26, compare with Luk_22:19.
