6659. 'And they set princes of tributes over them' means falsities which would compel them to serve. This is clear from the meaning of 'princes' as primary truths, dealt with in 1482, 2089, 5044, or in the contrary sense, in which the word is used here, as primary falsities; and from the meaning of 'tributes', to which they were compelled by the princes set over them, as hard service, dealt with in 6394.
