Isaiah 21:7
_ _ chariot, etc. — rather, “a body of riders,” namely, some riding in pairs on horses (literally, “pairs of horsemen,” that is, two abreast), others on asses, others on camels (compare Isaiah 21:9; Isaiah 22:6). “Chariot” is not appropriate to be joined, as English Version translates, with “asses”; the Hebrew means plainly in Isaiah 21:7, as in Isaiah 21:9, “a body of men riding.” The Persians used asses and camels for war [Maurer]. Horsley translates, “One drawn in a car, with a pair of riders, drawn by an ass, drawn by a camel”; Cyrus is the man; the car drawn by a camel and ass yoked together and driven by two postilions, one on each, is the joint army of Medes and Persians under their respective leaders. He thinks the more ancient military cars were driven by men riding on the beasts that drew them; Isaiah 21:9 favors this. |
Isaiah 21:7
A chariot — Hereby he signifies the variety and abundance of warlike provisions which the Medes and Persians should have for their expedition, and particularly of chariots, whereof some were for the carriage of necessary things, and others for the battle. |
Isaiah 21:7
And he saw a chariot [with] a couple of horsemen, a chariot of donkeys, [and] (k) a chariot of camels; and he hearkened diligently with much heed:
(k) Meaning, chariots of men of war, and others that carried the baggage. |
- And he saw:
Isaiah 21:9 And, behold, here cometh a chariot of men, [with] a couple of horsemen. And he answered and said, Babylon is fallen, is fallen; and all the graven images of her gods he hath broken unto the ground.
Isaiah 37:24 By thy servants hast thou reproached the Lord, and hast said, By the multitude of my chariots am I come up to the height of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon; and I will cut down the tall cedars thereof, [and] the choice fir trees thereof: and I will enter into the height of his border, [and] the forest of his Carmel.
|
- he hearkened:
Hebrews 2:1 Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let [them] slip.
