Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
To take away my reproach - As fruitfulness was a part of the promise of God to his people, Genesis 17:6, and children, on this account, being considered as a particular blessing from heaven, Exodus 23:20; Leviticus 26:9 : Psalms 127:3; so barrenness was considered among the Jews as a reproach, and a token of the disapprobation of the Lord. I Samuel 1:6. But see Luke 1:36.
