George Leo Haydock

Milked. Hebrew, “poured me out as milk, and curdled me like cheese?” (Haydock) — See Wisdom vii. 1. The ancients explained our origin by the comparison of milk curdled, or cheese; (Arist.[Aristotle?] i. 10.; Pliny, [Natural History?] vii. 15.) which the moderns have explained on more plausible principles. (Calmet) — Yet still we may acknowledge our ignorance with the mother of Machabees, 2 Machabees vii. 22.
