Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(28) Melteth--The Hebrew word is used in Ecclesiastes 10:18 of a dripping roof of a house; in Job 16:20 of weeping. The LXX. and Vulg. have "slumbered," which suits far better with the next clause, which is literally, make me rise up. Symmachus has "distils."
