this dreamer] Heb. master of dreames. See Annot. on Chap. 14. vers. 13. They give him this nickname in scorne, as the manner of ill minded men is to set termes of reproach upon the Religios; so Christ was called a Galilean in derision by Julian; the Apostle Paul a Babler by profane Philosophers, Acts 17:18. This age abounds with such abusive appellations cast upon the best Christians, by such as are of an hereticall Religion, or of no Religion at all; the practice of this kind of contumelie is ancient, and the patience under it as ancient; which may make us both to looke for it, and make light of it.
