Subjects in this Topic:
MALOBATHRON.—RVm [Note: Revised Version margin.] of Son_2:17 for EV [Note: English Version.] Bether (wh. see). It is argued by Post, against this rendering, that the malobathron plant (Laurus malabathrum) did not grow wild on any of the mountains of Palestine. Others would render (by a slight textual emendation) ‘mountains of cypresses.’
