The Hebrew is, In my palate, the palate being a part of the mouth, and one special Instrument of speech (Naturalists reckon five, The lips, the tongue, the teeth, the palate, & the throat) 'tis put for all; but there is more in it then so, for every man speaks in his mouth,1 or by the palate which is the heaven, roof or ceiling of the mouth. Therefore when Elihu saith, My tongue hath spoken in my mouth, or in my palate; The palate may be considered as the instrument of tasting as well as of speaking. We say such a thing is very savoury to the palate; And we call that Palate wine, which is quick and lively, brisk and pleasant to the taste. Thus when Elihu saith here, My tongue hath spoken in my mouth or palate; His meaning is; I have uttered only that which I have well considered, what my tongue hath spoken to you, I have tasted my self; I have put every word to my palate; For as a man that that tasteth wine or any other sapid thing, must have it upon his palate, before he can make a Judgement, whether it be sweet or sharp, quick or flat: so faith Elihu, my mouth hath spoken in my palate, I tasted my words before I spake them.
