Adam Clarke
As the shadow of a great rock - The shadow of a great projecting rock is the most refreshing that is possible in a hot country, not only as most perfectly excluding the rays of the sun, but also as having in itself a natural coolness, which it reflects and communicates to every thing about it.

Hesiod. 2:206.
"When Sirius rages, and thine aching head,
Parched skin, and feeble knees refreshment need;
Then to the rock' s projected shade retire,
With Biblin wine recruit thy wasted powers."
