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.
boosh'-el (modios): A dry measure containing about a peck, but as it is used in the New Testament (Mt 5:15; Mr 4:21; Lu 11:33) it does not refer to capacity but is used only to indicate a covering to conceal the light.
