Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(38) The Lord smote Nabal.--That is to say, that after ten days had passed the Lord put an end to the base life by a second apoplectic stroke. Although the death was a sequel to the selfishness, the passion, and the intemperance, it does not appear that anything more than the operation of natural causes occasioned the end here. In the language of these old divinely inspired writers, disease and sickness are often spoken of as the special "shafts" aimed by the Most High, as in fact they are.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewAbout tenכַּעֲשֶׂ֣רֶת (ka·‘ă·śe·reṯ)Preposition-k | Number - masculine singular constructStrong's 6235: Tendays later,הַיָּמִ֑ים (hay·yā·mîm)Article | Noun - masculine pluralStrong's 3117: A daythe LORDיְהוָ֛ה (Yah·weh)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 3068: LORD -- the proper name of the God of Israelstruckוַיִּגֹּ֧ף (way·yig·gōp̄)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 5062: To push, gore, defeat, stub, inflictNabalנָבָ֖ל (nā·ḇāl)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 5037: Nabal -- a man of Carmeldead.וַיָּמֹֽת׃ (way·yā·mōṯ)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 4191: To die, to killJump to PreviousDeath Died Dieth Disease Later Nabal Smiteth Smote Struck Ten
