1The Hebrew word, which we translate [call] signifies sometimes to pray, and sometimes to plead or challenge: An act of invocation, or an act of provocation: it is rendered both ways here. By most, as we, If I had called upon him; that is, if I had prayed or made my suit unto him. By some, If I had sent in my plea (as to begin a suit of law with him) or my challenge, as to enter the combat with him, &c.
