Stood — The prophet speaks of what shall be, as if it were already. To use — To consult with his gods, and to cast lots. Arrows — Writing on them the names of the cities, then putting them into a quiver, and thence drawing them out and concluding, according to the name which was drawn. He consulted — Perhaps by a divine permission, the devil gave them answers from those images. In the liver — They judged of future events, by the entrails, and more especially by the liver.
