Pulpit CommentaryVerse 11. - Wickedness is in the midst thereof; deceit and guile depart not from her streets; literally, out of her street (rehob) - "the open square, where justice ought to have been administered "(Kay), "adjoining the vaulted passage of the city gate" (Cheyne); comp. Job 29:7.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(11) Deceit.--Rather, oppression, or violence.Streets.--Rather, squares, the open space at thegate of an Oriental city where public business was conducted. It is a miserable picture of mis-government; in the very seat of justice is nothing but oppression and guile.
