Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(20) And when they went from nation to nation.--And they went. This shows that the third plural ("when they were") is original in the last verse. The reference is to the wanderings of the patriarchs.And from one kingdom.--The conjunction is prosaic, and is not read in Psalm 105:13.Parallel Commentaries ...Hebrewthey wanderedוַיִּֽתְהַלְּכוּ֙ (way·yiṯ·hal·lə·ḵū)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Hitpael - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine pluralStrong's 1980: To go, come, walkfrom nationמִגּ֣וֹי (mig·gō·w)Preposition-m | Noun - masculine singularStrong's 1471: A foreign nation, a Gentile, a troop of animals, a flight of locuststoאֶל־ (’el-)PrepositionStrong's 413: Near, with, among, tonationגּ֔וֹי (gō·w)Noun - masculine singularStrong's 1471: A foreign nation, a Gentile, a troop of animals, a flight of locustsfrom [one] kingdomוּמִמַּמְלָכָ֖ה (ū·mim·mam·lā·ḵāh)Conjunctive waw, Preposition-m | Noun - feminine singularStrong's 4467: Kingdom, sovereignty, dominion, reigntoאֶל־ (’el-)PrepositionStrong's 413: Near, with, among, toanother.אַחֵֽר׃ (’a·ḥêr)Adjective - masculine singularStrong's 312: Hinder, next, otherJump to PreviousKingdom Nation Wandered Wandering
