Psalms29:6
6. He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Syrion like a young unicorn .
The Cedars last mentioned: which being broken by the Thunder, the parts of them are suddenly and violently hurled about hither and thither.
An high Mountain beyond Iordan, joyning to Lebanon: of which see Deut. 3. 9. and 4. 48. Lebanon and Sirion are here understood: Either, 1. Properly: and so they are said to skip, Or, leap both here, and Psal. 114: 4. by a poetical Hyper[illegible: 1+ letters]ole very usual, both in Scripture and other Authors: Which is so known that it is needless to give any Instances of it. Or, 2. Metonymically for the Trees or people of them, as the Wilderness, v. 8. may seem to be taken; and as the Earth, by the same Figure, is frequently put for the people, which dwell in it.
Heb. Reem: Of which see on Numb. 23. 22. Psal. 22. 21.
Marginal references: [illegible: 1 word]. 3. 9.
