Commentary for Psalms 129:3
עַל־גַּ֭בִּי חָרְשׁ֣וּ חֹרְשִׁ֑ים הֶ֝אֱרִ֗יכוּ למענותם [לְמַעֲנִיתָֽם׃]
The plowers plowed upon my back; They made long their furrows.
Rashi on Psalms
the plowmen...they lengthened their furrow That is the hill of the plowshare, as (I Sam. 13: 14): “about half a furrow (מענה) [which] a yoke [of oxen plow in] a field.”
