Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
Zebulun and Naphtali - jeoparded their lives - The original is very emphatic, chereph naphsho lamuth , they desolated their lives to death - they were determined to conquer or die, and therefore plunged into the thickest of the battle. The word jeoparded is a silly French term, and comes from the exclamation of a disappointed gamester: Jeu perdu ! The game is lost; or J' ai perdue ! I have lost.
