"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 MSS. reads, {meshallachah âl hammayim,} ""in order to send them to the water.""" |
