<< Isaiah 11:3

Isaiah 11:5 >>

Isaiah 11:4

With the rod of his mouth "By the blast of his mouth" - For beshebet , by the rod, Houbigant reads beshebeth , by the blast of his mouth, from nashab , to blow. The conjecture is ingenious and probable; and seems to be confirmed by the Septuagint and Chaldee, who render it by the word of his mouth, which answers much better to the correction than to the present reading. Add to this, that the blast of his mouth is perfectly parallel to the breath of his lips in the next line.
