גָּדַ֣ע בָּֽחֳרִי אַ֗ף כֹּ֚ל קֶ֣רֶן יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל הֵשִׁ֥יב אָח֛וֹר יְמִינ֖וֹ מִפְּנֵ֣י אוֹיֵ֑ב וַיִּבְעַ֤ר בְּיַעֲקֹב֙ כְּאֵ֣שׁ לֶֽהָבָ֔ה אָכְלָ֖ה סָבִֽיב׃ (ס)
Sa Kanyang nag-aalab na galit ay pinutol Niya ang lahat ng sungay ng Israel; iniurong Niya ang Kanyang kanang kamay sa harap ng kaaway; at nagliyab Siya laban kay Jacob na gaya ng naglalagablab na apoy na tumutupok sa buong paligid.
Tze'enah Ure'enah
“He cut down” [2:3]. He cut down the rulers of Israel with wrath. He put his right hand behind his back, not to help Israel and he lit a fire over Jacob and burned everything around him.
Rashi
He withheld His right hand. He withdrew Himself as though withdrawing His right hand from waging war for his children.9His right hand is symbolic of strength and war. See Shemos 15:6.
