Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 6. - the word "garrisons" appears in the text in the parallel place, and would be justly supplied in our Hebrew text here.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(6) Put garrisons.--The noun here omitted in the Hebrew, probably by an oversight, occurs in Samuel. In 1Chronicles 11:16 and 2Chronicles 17:2 it means "out post," or "garrison;" in 1Kings 4:19, "prefects," or "pashas." The Targum of Samuel gives strategi, "generals;" Syriac and Arabic, "prefects" and "collectors;" LXX. and Vulg., "garrison." The Arabic here has "collectors and guards;" the Syriac, "commanders."Syria-damascus.--Aram of Damascus (1Chronicles 18:5). (Comp. 1Chronicles 18:2 for the next clause.) . . .
