Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 5. - Whom I shall choose. For the special duty and service of the priesthood (cf. chapter Numbers 16:5). I will make to cease. הַשִׁכֹּתִי מֵעָֹלַי. I will cause to sink so that they shall not rise again.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(5) The man's rod, whom I shall choose, shall blossom.--Or, shall sprout forth or put forth--i.e., leaves or blossoms. Achilles, when enraged against Agamemnon, is made to swear a solemn oath by his sceptre which, having once left its stock on the mountains, shall never again grow. King Latinus is represented by Virgil as confirming his covenant with 'neas by a similar oath.
