* there.
  21  Ps 78:45  105:31 
 * the land.
   How intolerable a plague of flies can prove, is evident from
   the fact that whole districts have been laid waste by them.
   The inhabitants have been forced to quit their cities, not
   being able to stand against the flies and gnats with which
   they were pestered.  Hence different people had deities whose
   office it was to defend them against flies.  Among these may
   be reckoned Baalzebub, the fly-god of Ekron; Hercules,
   {muscarum abactor,} Hercules the expeller of flies; and hence
   Jupiter had the titles of [apomuios, muiagros, muiochoros,]
   because he was supposed to expel flies, and especially clear
   his temples of these insects.  See Bryant.
