2 Kings 7:10
"So they came and called unto the porter of the city: and they told them, saying, We came to the camp of the Syrians, and, behold, there was no man there, neither voice of man, but horses tied, and asses tied, and the tents as they were."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

So they came and called to the porter of the city,.... The chief of those that had the care of the gate of it; for there were more than one, as

follows: and they told them; the porter, and the watchmen with him: we came to the camp of the Syrians, and, behold, there was no man there, neither voice of man; not one to be seen or heard: but horses tied, and asses tied; to their mangers; the latter, as well as the former, were used for war, not only to carry burdens, but to fight upon, as Aelianus (a) relates of some people; and especially when there was a want of horses, as Strabo (b); and both observe that this creature was sacrificed to Mars: and the tents as they were; none of them struck, nor anything taken out of them. (a) De Animal. l. 12. c. 34. (b) Geograph. l. 15. p. 500.
