Psalms 37:35

I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.
Read Chapter 37

Augustine of Hippo

AD 430
"I have seen the ungodly lifted up on high, and rising above the cedars of Libanus" (ver. 35). And suppose him to be "lifted up on high;" suppose him to be towering above the "rest;" what follows?

George Leo Haydock

AD 1849
Cedars Septuagint have read differently from the present Hebrew and present a more beautiful sense. (Calmet) Protestants, "and spreading himself like a green bay-tree, (marginal note: or "a green tree that groweth in his own soil") yet he passed away, and lo "(Haydock) Ezrach, denotes an evergreen, (Rabbins) "a laurel covered with verdure. "(Calmet) Houbigant has "a cedar "ezrach.

Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation - 2 Peter 1:20
