There are three lakes spoken of in Judea, namely, the Asphaltites, Tiberias, and Semechon. In the original we should read Bor as a lake, or pit, or cistern. In Palestine, we are told, they make lakes for their wines. That passage in the Revelations concerning the wine-press means a take. (Revelation 14:19-20)
