What is the significance of "Mateh" and "Makel"?

1.

Malbim: Mateh symbolizes kingship, and Makel are enforcers over the nation. If the Mateh is not strong, just beautiful, and he rules via a strong Makel by force, this is not good. In Mo'av, the kingship itself was strong, and the Makel was merely for the glory of the kingship; it did not rule by force.
