Then hear thou from heaven. — Rather, (to) heaven or (in) heaven, as in Kings. (Comp. Note on 2 Chronicles 6:23.) The versions read “from heaven.”
When thou ... way. — For thou pointest them to the good way. A construction only found here. Comp. Psalms 27:11, where we see the simple accusation as in Kings, which is probably right here also, ’el (to) being an error for ’eth (so the versions). Making this change, the verse coincides with 1 Kings 8:36.
