Ver. 19. So that the face of a man] See chap. 1.10.

And the face of a young Lion towards the Palm-tree] The Palm-tree as it grew beſt in Judaea, ſo it is probable that from the Temple at Jeruſalem it came at firſt, that the Heathens put the Palm for a ſign of victory, and that the picture of Victory amongſt them had in the one hand a Palm, and in the other an Olive branch. Wiſdom, (the praiſe of a man) and courage (the property of a Lion) zeal and diſcretion, as they make a good mixture, ſo they conquer and carry it.
