as when a hungry man dreameth] They shall be insatiable in their vengeance and crueltie; as thirstie after bloud, when they may seem to be glutted with it, as if they had no more tasted of it, then a thirstie man of drink in a dream. he is, faint] Or, athirst. Jeremiah 31:25. his soul hath appetite] He is as desirous of, and eager after drink, as before: though he seemed to have drunk largely in his dream. Psalms 73:20.
