Psalms 119:83
wineskin ..... smoke <07008 04997> [like a bottle in the smoke.]
As the bottles in the East are made of skin, it is evident that one of these hung up in the smoke must soon be parched, shrivelled up, lose all its strength, and become unsightly and useless. Thus the Psalmist appeared to himself to have become useless and despicable, through the exhausted state of his body and mind, by long bodily afflictions and mental distress.

Lamentations 4:8
appearance <08389> [visage.]
darker ... soot <07815 02821> [blacker than a coal. Heb. darker than blackness.]
Or, as Dr. Blayney renders, "duskier than the dawn;" {shachar} signifying "the dawn of the day, when it is neither light nor dark, but between both, at which time objects are not easily distinguished."
recognized <05234> [they.]
skin <05785> [their skin.]
Nahum 2:10
Destruction <0950> [She is.]
Nineveh was taken and utterly ruined by Assuerus, or Cyaxares, king of Media, and Nabuchodonosor, or Nabopolassar, king of Babylon, B.C. 606, or 612. Diodorus, who with others ascribes the taking of it to Arbaces the Mede and Belesis the Babylonian, says that he "dispersed the citizens in the villages, levelled the city with the ground, transferred the gold and silver, of which there were many talents, to Ecbatana the metropolis of the Medes, and this subverted the empire of the Assyrians."
Destruction <0950> [empty.]
