חָנוּת f. a stall, cell, dwelling (Chald. and Syr. חָנוּת, ܚܳܢܘܽܬܐܳ a tradesman’s stall, Gewdlbe, Arabic حَانُوتُ, حَانَاةُ), so called from its being curved or arched (see the root No. 1). Hence Jeremiah, 37:16, is said to have been cast אֶל בֵּית הַבּוֹר וְאֶל הַחֲנֻיוֹת “into the dungeon, and into the stalls (or vaults)” (die Gewölbe), i.e. subterranean. So the passage is usually taken, and not unsuitably. The exposition of Ev. Scheid in Diss. Lugdun. page 988, is however a little more suited to the context; he understands the word to mean curved posts or crooked bars, in which the captive sat in a distorted position; elsewhere called סַד, מַהְפֶּכֶת compare Jeremiah 20:2, Jeremiah 20:3, 29:26 Gr. κύφων, from κύπτω; compare Arab. حِنوُ the crooked wooden frame of a saddle.
