Ezekiel27:15
15 The men of Dedan were thy merchants, many Isles were the merchandise of thine hand: they brought thee for a present , horns of ivory , and ebeny.
Vid. chap. 25. ver. 13 let. f. This Dedan was in Ara[illegible: 1 letter]ia, built by Dedan the Son of Regma, not far from the Persi[illegible: 2 letters] Gulf, and now called Daden, whence through the Red Sea they might convey their own Merchandise.
In the Indian Seas, and in the Red Sea Traded with thee.
Knowing how acceptable they were to get thy favour, they either made p[illegible: 2 letters]sents, and gave these things, or brought them to sell.
Elkes horns, or Wild Goats, some think tis meant of the Unicorn, but the first is likest.
Ivory, not of, the Heb. is not in Regimi[illegible: 1 letter]e, but in apposition, and should be read they brought thee Presents, Horns, Ivory, and Ebeny, which is a very solid, heavy, shining and black wood, [illegible: 1 letter]it for many choice workes.
