This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
My belly, i.e. my mind or heart, which is oft called a man’s belly, as Job_15:35 Psa_40:8 Hab_3:16 Joh_7:38.
As wine; as new wine pent up close in a bottle, as the following words explain it and determine it. The
wine is here put for the bottle in which it is, by a common metonymy.
New bottles, i.e. bottles of new wine, by the same general figure; for otherwise old bottles are most apt to burst, Mat_9:17.
