Exposition of the Old and New Testament
John Gill (1697–1771) · 18th-century historical commentary
Source: BibleWord.ai's local reference edition of this named work.
For he wist not what to say, etc..] He did not know what he should say, or what was proper to be said by him, at such a time, in such circumstances, and before such persons; for they were sore afraid. The Persic version reads, “he was”: and so the Latin translation of the Syriac, though that itself is, “they were”; for all three were filled with consternation at what they saw and heard; so that they were scarcely themselves, and knew not well what they said or did.
