"Heb. made to know. Instead of wyyodâ, Houbigant, Le Clerc, and others read wyyadosh, ""and he tore or threshed;"" and this is not only agreeable to what Gideon threatened (Jdg 8:7), but is supported by the LXX. Vulgate, Chaldee, Syriac, and Arabic. The Hebrew text might easily have been corrupted simply by the change of [Shîyn] shin, into ['Ayin] ayin, letters very similar to each other." |
