What is the significance of "v'Chafru ha'Kosemim"?
Malbim: This is a greater shame than Bushah.
Why will they cover their moustache?
Radak: This is like mourners cover their moustaches. When they see that their Nevu'os are not fulfilled, they will be ashamed, and like mourners. Hashem told Yechezkel "v'Lo Sateh Al Safam" (24:17).
Malbim: The Nevi'im spoke with their lips, therefore they will cover like an Avel, and not speak.
What is "Ma'ane Elokim"?
Radak: It is His word 1 . All will recognize that what they said was not His word 2 . Ma'ane is like Davar. The same applies to "va'Shem Anahu" (Shmuel I, 9:17), "Mah Anah Hashem" (Yirmeyah 23:35).
