Text:EBD:Threshold
Revision as of 19:44, 17 November 2008 by Kathleen.wright5 (talk | contribs) (Threshold (EBD) moved to Text:EBD:Threshold)
(1.) Heb. miphtan, probably a projecting beam at a higher point than the threshold proper (1 Sam. 5:4,5; Ezek. 9:3; 10:4,18; 46:2; 47:1); also rendered "door" and "door-post."
(2.) `Asuppim, pl. (Neh. 12:25), rendered correctly "storehouses" in the Revised Version. In 1 Chr. 26:15, 17 the Authorized Version retains the word as a proper name, while in the Revised Version it is translated "storehouses."
