Adam Clarke's Bible Commentary Verse 8. Which is gone down "By which the sun is gone down"] For mb bashshemesh, the Septuagint, Syriac, and Chaldee read mh , hashshemesh. - Houbigant. In the history of this miracle in the book of Kings, (2 Kings xx. 9-11,) there is no mention at all made of the sun, but only of the going backward of the shadow: which might be effected by a supernatural refraction. The first o hliov, the sun, in this verse is omitted in the Septuagint, MS. Pachom.
