* and it shall return, etc. or, when it is returned, and hath
been broused. teil-tree.
The teil-tree is the linden or lime-tree, a species very
common in Palestine; the leaf of which resembles that of the
laurel, and its flower that of the olive. But the original
{ailah,} which our translators render the oak, (but here
distinguished from {allon,} the oak,) and Bp. Lowth the
{ilex,} in ch. 1:29, 30, probably denotes, as Celsius
contends, the {terebinth.} It is an evergreen of moderate
size, but having the top and branches large in proportion to
the trunk; leaves, like those of the olive, but green
intermixed with red and purple; flowers, like those of the
vine, growing in bunches, and purple; fruit, of a ruddy
purple, the size of a juniper berry, hanging in clusters, very
juicy, and containing a single seed of the size of a grape
stone; wood, hard and fibrous, from which a resin distils;
with an excresence scattered among the leaves, of the size of
a chestnut, of a purple colour, variegated with green and
white.
