Verse 21
A great hail - about the weight of a talent - Has this any reference to cannon balls and bombs? It is very doubtful; we are all in the dark in these matters.
The words ὡς ταλαντιαια , as a talent, are used to express something great, excessively oppressive; as νοσηματων ταλαντιαιων , terrible diseases, not diseases of the weight of a talent. See Rosenmuller.
