The old Latin: Ruminabant, not Comedebant, like beasts they feed: the Hebrew word that hath such a signification, differs not much from that which signifies to assemble, [Greek or Hebrew] congregare [Greek or Hebrew] setare, rumniare. The Seventy [Greek or Hebrew] they cut themselves as Baals Priests: But rather it signifies to assemble. They flock together, that they might get corn and wine, so they had it, they did not care what became of God and his Ordinances. 2.
