Wilt thou fill the life or appetite of the young Lions? These young Lions are opposed to the old Lion spoken of before; and we may take them either for Lions so young, that they are not able to hunt or fetch their own prey, and therefore must have prey brought in to them; or we may take them for young Lions that have strength enough to go forth to seek their prey. So then, as the Lion before may be taken for an old Lion, for a Lion so old, that he cannot go forth to catch his prey; and the young Lions, for Lions so young, that they never had strength to go forth and catch their prey: So we may take the Text in general for old and young, whether able or unable to catch prey for themselves. Wilt thou hunt the prey for the Lion? or fill the appetite of the young Lions?
