See Desert; Palestine. In Judaea, during the months of April, May, August, and September, before and after the height of summer, and after the early and before the latter rains, the earth is refreshed with dews so copious as in a great measure to supply the place of showers. But, however copious the dews, they nourish only the more robust or hardy plants; and, as the season of heat Ugg Boots Outlet advances, the grass withers, the flowers fade, every green herb is dried up by the roots and dies, unless watered by the rivulets or by the labor of man. To this appearance of the fields during an Eastern summer the sacred writers often allude (Psa. xxxii, 4; Isa. xl, 6, 7). Should at this season a single spark fall upon the grass, a conflagration
immediately ensues, especially if there should be any briers or thorns, low shrubs, or contiguous woods (Psa. lxxxiii, 11; Isa. ix, 18; x, 71, 18; Jer. xxi, 14). From the middle of May to Uggs Clearance the middle of August, therefore, the land of Judiea is dry. It is the drought of summer (Gen. xxxi, 40; Psa. xxxii, 4). The parched ground is often broken into chasms (Psa. cii, 4). The heavens seem like brass, and the earth like iron, and all the land and the creatures upon it suffer (Deut. xxviii, 23); and nothing but the very slight dews of the night preserve the life of any living thing (Hag. i, 11).

Drowning was a mode of punishment in use among the Syrians, and was well known to the Jews in the time of our Saviour (Matt xviii, 6), though we have no scriptural evidence that it was practised by them. It was in use also among the Greeks and Romans. The emperor Augustus punished certain persons who had been guilty of rapacity in the province of Syria or of Lyeia by causing them to be thrown into a river, with a heavy weight about their necks. Josephus also tells us that the Galileans revolting, drowned the partisans of Herod in the sea of Gennesareth (Ant. xiv, 15,10). To this mode of capital punishment Christ alludes in Matt, xviii, 6.
