Who came to her?

1.

Rashi: Everyone who dared to. Radak ? the singular is used, i.e. every Nochri. It is one of eight words that refer to Bi'ah of Rabim, but the singular form is used.

2.

Malbim: The illness Balah came [on Ahalah and Ahalivah, like their Husband's curse].

2)

Who are "Ishos ha'Zimah"?

1.

Rashi: Women of Zimah. Radak ? this is the only place where Ishos is the plural of Ishah, for detriment; elsewhere, it is Nashim or Neshei.

2.

Malbim: This illness is called so. It is fire that burns according to the Zimah and great adultery. It is known nowadays as a burning, lasting Tzara'as and decay that clings to adulterers to wear out and burn their bodies and bones.
