Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(7) This thy stature.--Comp. Ecclesiasticus 24:14. Not only was the tall and graceful palm a common figure for female beauty, but its name, tamar, was common as a woman's name (Genesis 38:6; 2Samuel 13:1, &c).Clusters of grapes.--The italics were probably added by the English Version to bring the verse into agreement with "clusters of the vine" in the next verse; but no doubt the rich clusters of dates are at the moment in the poet's thought.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewYour statureקֽוֹמָתֵךְ֙ (qō·w·mā·ṯêḵ)Noun - feminine singular construct | second person feminine singularStrong's 6967: Heightis likeדָּֽמְתָ֣ה (dā·mə·ṯāh)Verb - Qal - Perfect - third person feminine singularStrong's 1819: To compare, to resemble, liken, considera palm tree;לְתָמָ֔ר (lə·ṯā·mār)Preposition-l | Noun - masculine singularStrong's 8558: Palm tree, date palmyour breastsוְשָׁדַ֖יִךְ (wə·šā·ḏa·yiḵ)Conjunctive waw | Noun - mdc | second person feminine singularStrong's 7699: The breast of a, woman, animalare clusters of fruit.לְאַשְׁכֹּלֽוֹת׃ (lə·’aš·kō·lō·wṯ)Preposition-l | Noun - masculine pluralStrong's 811: A bunch of grapes, other fruitJump to PreviousBreasts Clusters Fruit Grape Grapes Palm Palm-Tree Stately Stature Tall Tree Vine
