Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(35) I will break the bow of Elam.--As in Isaiah 22:6; Herod. vii. 61, Elam was conspicuous for its archers. We are reminded of the account which Herodotus gives (ii. 136) of the three things taught to the youth of Persia--to ride, to draw the bow, and to speak the truth. This weapon was "the chief of their might."
