LEES - L>@ - the coarser parts of a liquor, its sediment or dregs. "Wine on the lees" means a generous, full-bodied liquor. kjv@Isaiah:25:6) Before the wine was consumed, it was necessary to strain off the lees; such wine was then termed "well refined." kjv@Isaiah:25:6) To drink the lees, or "dregs," was an expression for the endurance of extreme punishment. kjv@Psalms:75:8)

easton:



Lees @ (Heb. shemarim), from a word meaning to keep or preserve. It was applied to "lees" from the custom of allowing wine to stand on the lees that it might thereby be better preserved kjv@Isaiah:25:6). "Men settled on their lees" kjv@Zephaniah:1:12) are men "hardened or crusted." The image is derived from the crust formed at the bottom of wines long left undisturbed kjv@Jeremiah:48:11). The effect of wealthy undisturbed ease on the ungodly is hardening. They become stupidly secure (comp. kjv@Psalms:55:19; kjv@Amos:6:1). To drink the lees kjv@Psalms:75:8) denotes severe suffering.
