Haydock's commentary
Killers. Hebrew, "Ceretheans." David's guards were of this nation, 2 Kings viii. 18. They came originally from Crete; and the Septuagint have here, "Cretans;" (Calmet) as Grabe substitutes for "Judges of Sidon." (Haydock)
Chaldean, "archers."
Remnant. They deserve not the name of a nation, having been much reduced by Egypt and the Chaldeans. (Calmet)
