Commentaries:
Barnes' Notes
Calamity - The Hebrew word is plural (as in Psalms 57:1; Psalms 91:3), and seems to express the multiplied and manifold sorrow caused by the foolish son.
Continual dropping - The irritating, unceasing, sound of the fall, drop after drop, of water through the chinks in the roof.
