Luke 18:5 - Arno Geneva Study Bible

Bible Comments

Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she (c) weary me.

(c) Literally, "beat me down with her blows", and it is a metaphor taken of wrestlers who beat their adversaries with their fists or clubs: in the same way those that are persistent beat the judge's ears with their crying out, even as it were with blows.
