in the king:
"So she wroteª° lettersª in Ahab'sª name,ª and sealedª° [them] with his seal,ª and sentª° the lettersª unto¹ the eldersª and to¹ the noblesª that¹ [were] in his city,ª dwellingª° with¹ Naboth.ª" {1Kg 21:8} + "Where¹ the wordª of a kingª [is, there is] power:ª and who¹ may sayª° unto him, What¹ doestª° thou?" {Ecc 8:4} + "Nebuchadnezzarª the king,ª unto allª people,ª nations,ª and languages,ª that¹ dwellª° in allª the earth;ª Peaceª be multipliedª° unto you." {Dan 4:1}
by posts:
"And the lettersª were sentª° byª postsª° into¹ all¹ the king'sª provinces,ª to destroy,ª° to kill,ª° and to cause to perish,ª°¹ all¹ Jews,ª both youngª¹ and¹ old,ª little childrenª and women,ª in oneª day,ª [even] upon the thirteenthªª [day] of the twelfthªª month,ª which¹ is the monthª Adar,ª and [to take] the spoilª of them for a prey.ª°" {Est 3:13} + "So the postsª° went²°¹ with the lettersª fromª¹ the kingª and his princesª throughout all¹ Israelª and Judah,ª and according to the commandmentª of the king,ª saying,ª° Ye childrenª of Israel,ª turn againª° unto¹ the LORDª Godª of Abraham,ª Isaac,ª and Israel,ª and he will returnª° to¹ the remnantª° of you, that are escapedª out of the handª¹ of the kingsª of Assyria.ª" {2Ch 30:6} + "Now my daysª are swifterª° than¹ a post:ª° they flee away,ª° they seeª° no¹ good.ª" {Job 9:25} + "And with thee will I break in piecesª° the horseª and his rider;ª° and with thee will I break in piecesª° the chariotª and his rider;ª°" {Jer 51:21}
mules:
Rechesh, in Syriac, rechesha, probably denotes a swift horse.
camels:
Achashteranim, from the Persian akhash, large, and aster, a mule, probably, as Bochart supposes, denotes a large mule.
young dromedaries:
Beney harammachim, "the sons of mares," as the word ramakat denotes in Arabic; probably an expletive of the preceeding word. "The multitudeª of camelsª shall coverª° thee, the dromedariesª of Midianª and Ephah;ª all¹ they from Shebaª¹ shall come:ª° they shall bringª° goldª and incense;ª and they shall shew forthª° the praisesª of the LORD.ª" {Isa 60:6} + "And they shall bringª°¹ all¹ your brethrenª [for] an offeringª unto the LORDª out of all¹¹ nationsª upon horses,ª and in chariots,ª and in litters,ª and upon mules,ª and upon swift beasts,ª to¹ my holyª mountainª Jerusalem,ª saithª° the LORD,ª as¹ the childrenª of Israelª bringª°¹ an offeringª in a cleanª vesselª into the houseª of the LORD.ª" {Isa 66:20} + "How¹ canst thou say,ª° I am not¹ polluted,ª° I have not¹ goneª° afterª Baalim?ª seeª° thy wayª in the valley,ª knowª° what¹ thou hast done:ª° [thou art] a swiftª dromedaryª traversingª° her ways;ª" {Jer 2:23}
