'Maledizione a Meroz', disse l'angelo dell'Eterno, 'Maledici amaramente i loro abitanti, poiché non vennero in aiuto dell'Eterno, in aiuto dell'Eterno contro i potenti.'
Rashi on Judges
Curse Meroz! One opinion is that this was a star.38Sisera’s protective star. (Rashi to Moed Katan, 16:a). According to others, this was a distinguished person who was near the battle field but failed to appear.39Moed Katan ibid.

Radak on Judges
Curse Meroz: It is the name of a city close to the war's location; and [its inhabitants] did not come to help. Therefore she cursed them. But she did not curse the far ones that did not come.
