‏ Isaiah 66:12

Verse 12. Like a river, and-like a flowing stream-"Like the great river, and like the overflowing stream"] That is, the Euphrates, (it ought to have been pointed cannahar, ut fluvius ille, as the river,) and the Nile.

Then shall ye suck-"And ye shall suck at the breast"] These two words al shad, at the breast, seem to have been omitted in the present text, from their likeness to the two words following; al tsad, at the side. A very probable conjecture of Houbigant. The Chaldee and Vulgate have omitted the two latter words instead of the two former. See Clarke on Isa 60:4.
