ISBE 1915

From the International Standard Bible Encyclopedia (1915). Where it reports or adopts critical theories, those are the views of its writers or the scholars they cite; Gospel Companion holds the historic Christian view of Scripture.

boundz: gabhal = "to twist" (as a rope), "to make an enclosure" (as by a line) occurs in Ex 19:12,23; Ps 104:9; gebhul = "a cord," hence, "a boundary," "territory" (Ex 23:31 the King James Version), with its feminine form gebhulah (De 32:8; Isa 10:13); choq = "enactment," "appointment" (of time, space, quantity, labor, or usage), hence, "commandment," "decree," "ordinance" (Job 14:5; 26:10 the King James Version); in the Greek, horothesia, in the sense of "a limit," "boundary line," occurs in Ac 17:26.
