Commentaire sur Isaïe 22:18
צָנ֤וֹף יִצְנָפְךָ֙ צְנֵפָ֔ה כַּדּ֕וּר אֶל־אֶ֖רֶץ רַחֲבַ֣ת יָדָ֑יִם שָׁ֣מָּה תָמ֗וּת וְשָׁ֙מָּה֙ מַרְכְּב֣וֹת כְּבוֹדֶ֔ךָ קְל֖וֹן בֵּ֥ית אֲדֹנֶֽיךָ׃
il te roulera comme une pelote, te lancera comme une boule vers un pays aux vastes espaces. Là, tu mourras, là iront tes chars somptueux, ô toi, honte de la maison de ton maître.
Rashi on Isaiah
He shall wind you around like a turban that surrounds the head, the enemies and oppressors shall surround you.

Ibn Ezra on Isaiah
צנוף יצנפך צנפה He will surely bind thee together.24A. V., He will surely violently turn and toss thee. According to I. E.: צנף to bind, מצנפת a mitre that is bound round the head.24A. V., He will surely violently turn and toss thee. According to I. E.: צנף to bind, מצנפת a mitre that is bound round the head. Comp. מצנפת mitre (Ex. 28:4). He will take him, together with all his money and wealth.25I. E. infers this probably from the root צנף being repeated thrice.

Rashi on Isaiah
like a surrounding wall. (כַּדּוּר). Our Rabbis, however, explained it as an expression of a ball, which they call ‘pelote’ in French, which is tossed and caught from hand to hand.
