This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
head of all ... streets - (Lam 2:19; Lam 4:1).
wild bull - rather, “oryx” [Jerome], or gazelle [Gesenius], or wild goat [Bochart]; commonly in the East taken in a net, of a wide sweep, into which the beasts were hunted together. The streets of cities in the East often have gates, which are closed at night; a person wishing to escape would be stopped by them and caught, as a wild animal in a net.
