Vers. 9.
They shall runne too and fro in the citie: They shall runne vpon the wall: they shall climbe vp vpon the houses, and enter in at the windowes like the theefe.
* 1.1SIxtly, He feareth the Iewes, and describeth the Chaldees by the greedinesse or desire of victorie, wherewithall these men shall be enflamed. For this desire and greedines of victorie is wont also to be considered in a good Souldier. For it maketh him bolde, venturous, manly, and diligent and eager in pursuing and searching out his enemies. And this also without al doubt striketh a feare into the enemies, when as they see, or heare that they haue or must haue to doe with such kinde of enemies. So then they shall runne too and fro in the citie which they haue taken, to catch and slay their enemies: they shall climbe vp by the walles: they shall en∣ter in at the windowes like theeues to kill and steale: they shall o∣mit or leaue nothing vndone for the getting of the full victorie. So Alexander the Great was excellent in the sealing of walles in townes and cities. So Dauid Psal. 18.
