Gill's Notes on the Bible
:-
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Make an agreement ... - Rather, âMake peace with me.â The word, which primarily means âblessing,â and secondarily âa gift,â has also the meaning, though more rarely, of âpeace.â Probably it acquired this meaning from the fact that a peace was commonly purchased by presents.
eat ... drink - A picture of a time of quiet and prosperity, a time when each man might enjoy the fruits of his land, without any fear of the spoilerâs violence. The words are in contrast with the latter part of 2 Kings 18:27.
Cistern - Rather, âwellâ Deuteronomy 6:11. Each cultivator in Palestine has a âwellâ dug in some part of his ground, from which he draws water for his own use. âCisterns,â or reservoirs for rain-water, are comparatively rare.
