Psalms60:7
Verſ. 7. Gilead is mine and Manaſſch] Theſe Countries on the other ſide of Jordan the Syrians happily had gotten, and now David had recovered them.
Ephraim alſo is the ſtrength of my head] Becauſe a populous and potent Tribe. Junius thinks David here alludeth to that of Moſes in his bleſſing of this Tribe, Deut. 33.17. As in the next words to that of Jacob, Gen. 49.10.
Judah is my law-giver] There, viz. at Jeruſalem, ſitteth the Synedrion, Numb. 11.16. and there is my ſoveraign-court of Juſtice, Pſal. 122.5. and of that Tribe, Chriſt the great law-giver of his Church ſhall ſpring.
