Job32:19
19. Behold, my belly is as wine which hath no vent, it is ready to burst like new bottles :
i. e. My mind or heart, which is oft called a man's belly, as Iob 15. 35. Psalm 40. 8. Hab. 3. 16. Io[illegible: 1+ letters]. 7. 38.
As new Wine pent up close in a Bottle, as the following words explain and determine it. The Wine is here put for the Bottle in which it is, by a common Metonymy.
i. e. Bottles of new Wine, by the same general Figure; for otherwise old Bottles are most apt to burst; Matthew 9. 17.
Marginal references: Heb. is [illegible: 1 word] [illegible: 1 word].
