again <07725> [and it shall return, etc. or, when it is returned, and hath been broused. teil-tree.]
The teil-tree is the linden or lime-tree, a species very common in Palestine; the leaf of which resembles that of the laurel, and its flower that of the olive. But the original {ailah,} which our translators render the oak, (but here distinguished from {allon,} the oak,) and Bp. Lowth the {ilex,} in ch. 1:29, 30, probably denotes, as Celsius contends, the {terebinth.} It is an evergreen of moderate size, but having the top and branches large in proportion to the trunk; leaves, like those of the olive, but green intermixed with red and purple; flowers, like those of the vine, growing in bunches, and purple; fruit, of a ruddy purple, the size of a juniper berry, hanging in clusters, very juicy, and containing a single seed of the size of a grape stone; wood, hard and fibrous, from which a resin distils; with an excresence scattered among the leaves, of the size of a chestnut, of a purple colour, variegated with green and white.
