Bridle. The golden ornaments of the bridles, shall be turned into offerings in the house of God. And there shall be an abundance of cauldrons and phials for the sacrifices of the temple; by which is meant, under a figure, the great resort there shall be to the temple, that is, to the Church of Christ, and her sacrifice. (Challoner) It is of a different nature, being the body and blood of Christ. But it shall not be confined to one place, nor the priesthood to one family, ver. 21. Hebrew, "they shall inscribe on the stables, Holy "The most filthy places shall be purified and changed into temples; or, "what is upon the little bells for horses shall be sanctified "or, on these "bells shall be inscribed, sacred to the Lord. "(Calmet) Metsilloth may signify a bell or bridle (Haydock) The bits were often of gold. (Virgil, Æneid vii., and viii.) (Calmet) St. Jerome's master said the word should be motsiluth, "trappings "and armour. (Haydock)
