Two chariot horses, or, two chariots of horses; or rather, two chariot horses, as divers render the words, i.e. horses which belonged to the king's chariots. For single horses seem much more proper for this service than chariots and horses. And whereas it was moved by the king's servant, that all the five horses should be sent, it seems it was thought by the king and others that two were sufficient for that purpose.
