Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown
Since those days were—from the time that those days of your neglect of the temple work have been.
when one came to an heap of twenty measures—that is to a heap which he had expected would be one of twenty measures, there were but ten.
fifty vessels out of the press—As the Septuagint translates "measure," and Vulgate "a flagon," and as we should rather expect vat than press. MAURER translates (omitting vessels, which is not in the original), "purahs," or "wine-measures."
