[4673] [Isa. xl. 18-20; xliv. 9-20; xlvi. 5-8.]
[4674] i.e., the faculty of discernment, which is properly man’s.
[4675] Lit., “are in the limits of.”
[4676] The ms. reads his—“these”, emended, as above, vobis in the margin of Ursinus, Elm., and LB.

[4680] So Salmasius, followed by Orelli, Hild., and Oehler, reading furfuraculis, and LB., reading perforaculis for the ms. furfure aculeis.
[4681] So the margin of Ursinus, Meursius (according to Orelli), Hild., and Oehler, reading part-u-m for the ms. -e-—“is a part of your labour,” etc.
[4682] Lit., “of thy work and fingers.”
