Klnijcie Meroz, rzecze wysłannik Wiekuistego, klnijcie, przeklinajcie mieszkańców jego, gdyż nie przybyli na pomoc Wiekuistemu, na pomoc Wiekuistemu, śród bohaterów.
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.
