Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(8) The nations.--As in Ezekiel 19:4, for one nation: in that case Egypt, in this Babylon. The plural is naturally used, as several nations were concerned in the whole history, of which single particulars only are here mentioned.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewThen the nationsגּוֹיִ֛ם (gō·w·yim)Noun - masculine pluralStrong's 1471: A foreign nation, a Gentile, a troop of animals, a flight of locustsset outוַיִּתְּנ֨וּ (way·yit·tə·nū)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine pluralStrong's 5414: To give, put, setagainst himעָלָ֥יו (‘ā·lāw)Preposition | third person masculine singularStrong's 5921: Above, over, upon, againstfrom the provincesמִמְּדִינ֑וֹת (mim·mə·ḏî·nō·wṯ)Preposition-m | Noun - feminine pluralStrong's 4082: A judgeship, jurisdiction, a district, a regionon every side.סָבִ֖יב (sā·ḇîḇ)AdverbStrong's 5439: A circle, neighbour, environs, aroundThey spreadוַֽיִּפְרְשׂ֥וּ (way·yip̄·rə·śū)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine pluralStrong's 6566: To break apart, dispersetheir netרִשְׁתָּ֖ם (riš·tām)Noun - feminine singular construct | third person masculine pluralStrong's 7568: A netover him;עָלָ֛יו (‘ā·lāw)Preposition | third person masculine singularStrong's 5921: Above, over, upon, againsthe was trappedנִתְפָּֽשׂ׃ (niṯ·pāś)Verb - Nifal - Perfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 8610: To manipulate, seize, chiefly to capture, wield, to overlay, to use unwarrantablyin their pit.בְּשַׁחְתָּ֥ם (bə·šaḥ·tām)Preposition-b | Noun - feminine singular construct | third person masculine pluralStrong's 7845: A pit, destructionJump to PreviousCaptured Caught Cried Hole Kingdoms Nations Net Pit Provinces Regions Round Side Snares Spread Stretched Trapped
