2 Kings8:11
11 And he setled his countenance stedfastly , until he was ashamed : and the man of God wept.
The Prophet fixed his eyes upon Hazael.
Either, till the Prophet was ashamed to look any longer upon him: or, till Hazael was ashamed, as apprehending that the Prophet suspected or discerned something extraordinary, and of an evil and shameful nature in him. The Hebrew words are ambiguous, and may indifferently [illegible: 1+ letters]e referred to either of them: but they seem more properly to belong to Hazael, because it follows by way of distinction, the man of God wept.
Marginal references: Heb. and [illegible: 1+ letters]et it.
