I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree.
Psalms 37:35 — KJV
I have seen. A witness from personal observation (see v. 25).
A green bay tree. Heb. ’ezrach ra‘anan, the meaning of which is not clear. ’Ezrach is, literally, “a native of a place,” “a citizen possessing the full civil rights” (Ex. 12:49; Lev. 16:29 etc.). Ra‘anan means “luxuriant,” “full of leaves.” Perhaps the LXX has preserved the correct rendering in its reading, “the cedars of Lebanon.” Some suggest the meaning, “a tree that has never been transplanted.”
