* enlarge. or, persuade. Japheth.
Japheth denotes enlargement, and how wonderfully have his
boundaries been enlarged; for not only Europe, but Asia Minor,
part of Armenia, Iberia, the whole of the vast regions of Asia
north of Taurus, and probably America, fell to the share of
his posterity.
* he shall dwell.
These words may mean either that God or that Japheth shall
dwell in the tents of Shem. In either sense the prophecy has
been literally fulfilled.
* dwell.
