This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
Ver. 4. Turn their ears from the truth] Aristotle writeth (De Mirabil. Auscult.) that vultures are killed with oil of roses. Sweet smells enrage tigers. Swine cannot live in some parts of Arabia, saith Pliny, by reason of the pleasant scent of aromatic trees there growing in every wood.
