Meadow. אָֽחוּʾāḥû - Strongs: H260.

From Easton: Meadow - (1.) Heb. ha'ahu (Genesis 41:2, Genesis 41:18), probably an Egyptain word transferred to the Hebrew; some kind of reed or water-plant. In the Revised Version it is rendered "reed-grass", i.e., the sedge or rank grass by the river side.

(2.) Heb. ma'areh (Judges 20:33), pl., "meadows of Gibeah" (R.V., after the LXX., "Maareh-geba"). Some have adopted the rendering "after Gibeah had been left open." The Vulgate translates the word "from the west."

Verses:

  • Genesis 41:2
  • Genesis 41:18
  • Job 8:11
