And a man shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land.
A man - rather, the man, Christ (Lowth); Hebrew, 'iysh (H376), one eminent as a man. It is as "the Son of man" He is to reign, as it was as Son of man He suffered (Matthew 26:64; John 5:27; John 19:5, "Behold the man"). Not as Maurer explains, 'every one of the princes shall be,' etc.
As rivers of water in a dry place - as refreshing as water and the cool shade are to the heated traveler (Isaiah 35:6-7; Isaiah 41:18).
