Ezekiel 38:21 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

I will call for a sword— Calmet himself confesses upon this verse, that we do not read in the history of Cambyses of any war which he maintained on the mountains of Israel. The Hebrews indeed, says he, were in no condition to resist him; and he farther allows ingenuously, that there is nothing in the history of this prince which can justify the execution of that part of the prediction which is at the end of the next verse.
