Zechariah 7:11 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Pulled away the shoulder— They refused to obey, and turned their backs on instruction. The Hebrew סררת ףּכת ויתנו vaiittenu kateph soreret is literally, They gave a backsliding shoulder; like him who offers his shoulder to carry a burthen with another, and afterwards slides from it, and leaves his companion overpowered with the weight. See Calmet.

Zechariah 7:11

11 But they refused to hearken, and pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they should not hear.
