30:7

brayed <05101> [brayed.]

nettles <02738> [the nettles.]

{Charul} probably denotes some kind of briar or bramble: so Vulgate renders it by {spina} or {sentis,} (Pr 24:31. Zep 2:9.) Celsius and Scheuchzer are inclined to think it the {paliurus,} a shrub growing sometimes to a considerable height in desert places. "One of the inconveniences of the vegetable thickets of Egypt is," says Denon, "that it is difficult to remain in them, as nine tenths of the trees and plants are armed with inexorable thorns, which suffer only an unquiet enjoyment of the shadow which is so constantly desirable."

{Benoth y„ƒnah,} in Arabic, {bintu n„ƒmatin,} not owls, but ostriches, so called from their doleful and hideous noises. "I have often," says Dr. Shaw, "heard them groan as if they were in the greatest agonies."
