EXPLANATORY NOTES AND QUAINT SAYINGS
Verse 10. Broken; scattered. God has more ways than one to deal with his and his church's enemies. --Matthew Henry.
Verse 10. Rahab. The reason why Egypt is expressed in Scripture under this word, ariseth from the two significations of it; first, it signifies strength, for Egypt was a very strong nation, and therefore the Israelites were reproved for going to them for help, and relying upon their strength, which though great in itself, yet should be to them but a broken reed; secondly, it signifieth pride, or the proud; men are usually proud of strength, and Egypt being a strong nation, was also a very proud nation. -- Joseph Caryl.
