Jeschijahu 14:4 Kommentar: Rashi & Ibn Ezra

וְנָשָׂ֜אתָ הַמָּשָׁ֥ל הַזֶּ֛ה עַל־מֶ֥לֶךְ בָּבֶ֖ל וְאָמָ֑רְתָּ אֵ֚יךְ שָׁבַ֣ת נֹגֵ֔שׂ שָׁבְתָ֖ה מַדְהֵבָֽה׃

Da wirst du vortragen diese Gleichnisrede über den König von Babel und sprechen: Wie feiert der Treiber, wie feiert die Quälerei.

Rashi on Isaiah

the haughty one Heb. מַדְהֵבָה. An expression of an excess of haughtiness and a heavy burden. Our Rabbis, however, expound it as: Those who say, ‘Measure and bring.’
