Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then I contended with the nobles,.... The rulers of the city, the civil magistrates, sharply reproved them for their neglect of duty:

and said unto them, what evil thing is this that ye do, and profane the sabbath day? by suffering servile works to be done in it, and things sold on it.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 17. I contended with the nobles — These evils took place through their negligence; and this I proved before them.
