Jeremiah 31:5 Thou shalt yet plant vineyards in the mountains of Samaria: the planters shall plant, and they shall not gather the vintage before the time:

Samaria. Its wine was famous, Judges 9:27. (Josephus, Jewish Wars 3:2.) --- Time, three years being elapsed, Leviticus 19:35. (Calmet) --- Protestants, "plant, and shall eat (marginal note, profane) them as common things." They shall not be too greedy, (Haydock) but shall have leisure to enjoy the fruits of their labour. (Calmet)
