Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(3) Upon the pavement.--Ricp?h; rendered by the LXX. ?? ???????????, which is the word used in John 19:13; Vulg., "pavimentum stratum lapide." (Comp. Ezekiel 40:17-18; Esther 1:6, a tesselated pavement.)And praised.--Gave thanks to Jehovah. The infinitive is here used for the finite form of the verb, as elsewhere.For he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.--See 1Chronicles 16:34-41; 1Chronicles 23:30; 2Chronicles 5:13; 2Chronicles 20:21. The Syriac and Arabic paraphrase, "and they said one to another: Give thanks to the Lord," &c. There is hardly anything in the section, except this last phrase, which can be said to be characteristic of the style of the chronicler. . . .
