- to shoot arrows.
These engines, it is probable, bore some resemblance to the
{balist'} and {catapult'} of the Romans, which were employed
for throwing stones and arrows, and were in reality the
mortars and carcasses of antiquity. With respect to the
towers which Uzziah built in the wilderness, (ver. 10,) Mr.
Harmer appears to have given a truer view of the subject than
commentators in general have done, who suppose that they were
conveniences made only for sheltering the shepherds from bad
weather, or to defend them from incursions of enemies; for
they might rather be designed to keep the nations that
pastured there in awe, and also to induce them quietly to pay
the tribute to which the 8th verse seems to refer. William of
Tyre describes a country not far from the Euphrates as
inhabited by Syrian and Armenian Christians, who fed great
flocks and herds there, but were kept in subjection to the
Turks, in consequence of their living among them in strong
places.
