which being used in the drink offerings was acceptable to God, and of a sweet savour to him, ( Numbers 15:7 ) and being drank by than, revives, refreshes, and makes glad, when before sorrowful, drooping, faint, and weary, ( Psalms 104:15 ) though some by Elohim, rendered God, understand great personages, as men of quality, magistrates and by man the common people, and so in ( Judges 9:9 )
