Commentary
John Gill
Again he sent other servants,.... Meaning, perhaps, such as suffered in the times of the Maccabees:
more than the first; their number was greater, though their office was the same, at least not higher:
and they did unto them likewise; they beat them with rods, they killed them with the sword, and stoned them, Heb 11:36.
JFB
Again, he sent other servants more than the first; and they did unto them likewise--see Kg2 17:13; Ch2 36:16, Ch2 36:18; Neh 9:26.
