Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
All thy rulers - are bound by the archers "All thy leaders - are fled from the bow" - There seems to be somewhat of an inconsistency in the sense according to the present reading. If the leaders were bound, usseru , how could they flee away? for their being bound, according to the obvious construction and course of the sentence, is a circumstance prior to their flight. I therefore follow Houbigant, who reads huseru , remoti sunt , "they are gone off." galu , transmigraverunt , Chaldee; which seems to confirm this emendation.
