[!note]- Supplanted with blood…
that is, undermined and brought to ruin, for shedding of blood: and, as it is signified in the following verse, for conspiring with the priests (of Bethel) like robbers, to murder in the way such as passed out of Sichem to go towards the temple of Jerusalem. Or else supplanted with blood signifies flowing in such manner with blood, as to suffer none to walk there without imbruing the soles of their feet in blood. Commentary on the Old Testament (1752)
