Juniper
People's Dictionary of the Bible
Juniper. Unquestionably, the original intends the rçlem (Rçtama r¿tam), a shrub of the broom family, attaining a height of about 12 feet. Under its shade travellers are glad to creep on a sultry day for a noontime nap, and thus Elijah lay and slept after his long journey. 1 Kings 19:4-5.
