Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
The multitude rose up together - There was a general outcry against them; and the magistrates tore off their clothes, and delivered them to the mob, commanding the lictors, or beadles, to beat them with rods, ̔ . This was the Roman custom of treating criminals, as Grotius has well remarked.
