Thirdly, She is here described by the choice of her abode, dwelling or habitation (ver. 28.) she dwelleth and abideth on the rock, on the crag of the rock, and in the strong place.
Thirdly, She is here discribed by the choise of her abode, dwelling or habitation (ver. 28.) she dwelleth and abideth on the rock, on the crag of the rock, and in the strong place.
Fourthly, We have here the sharpness of the Eagles appetite, and her quick endeavour to get food for the satisfying of it, ⟨p. 467⟩in the former part of the 29th verse. When she is abiding upon the rock, upon the crag of the rock, and in her strong place, from thence she seeks her prey; she is not idle there.
Fifthly, She is described by the sharpness of her sight, in the latter part of the 29th verse, her eyes behold afar off. As if the Lord had said, though she dwells thus high upon the rock, and the crag of the rock, yet this doth not hinder her in the pursuit of her prey, for her eyes behold afar off.
