my wine must (Micah 6:15, Vulgate mustum), the unfermented juice as it comes from the wine-press 1 [41]; but also the fermented juice, as is implied here and in Hosea 4:11 (-taketh away the heart"); cf. Genesis 27:37; Zechariah 9:17.

[41] In 19 passages out of 38 tîrôsh-must" is associated with -corn and oil," i.e. threshed corn and oil freshly expressed (though these words are also used of corn in the ear and oil in the berry), hence by analogy -freshly expressed juice of the grape." See Driver, Joel and Amos, p. 79 f.

cheereth God and man or gods and men, cf. Judges 9:9; the reference is to libations (Numbers 15:7; Numbers 28:7; Sir 50:15) and feasts (Psalms 104:15). See Rob. Smith l. c. 213 f.
