kneading troughs, or, dough, "And the riverª shall bring forth²° frogs² abundantly,ª°¹ which shall go upª° and comeª° into thine house,ª and into thy bedchamber,ªª and upon¹ thy bed,ª and into the houseª of thy servants,ª and upon thy people,ª and into thine ovens,ª and into thy kneadingtroughs:ª" {Exd 8:3}; Probably like the kneading-troughs of the Arabs; comparatively small wooden bowls, which also serve them for dishes. Their being bound up in their clothes may mean no more than their being wrapped up in their hykes, or long, loose, garments. See Shaw's Travels, p. 224, 4to. edit. |
