Let thistles grow instead of wheat, and cockle instead of barley,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
Let thistles grow instead of wheat - What the word חוח choach means, which we translate thistles, we cannot tell: but as חח chach seems to mean to hold, catch as a hook, to hitch, it must signify some kind of hooked thorn, like the brier; and this is possibly its meaning. And cockle - באשה bashah, some fetid plant, from באש baash, to stink.
