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.
rid, rid'-ans: "Rid" originally meant "rescue" (the King James Version Ge 37:22; Ex 6:6; Ps 82:4; 144:7,11), whence the meaning "remove" or "clean out" (Le 26:6 the King James Version, with "riddance" in Le 23:22; Ze 1:18). The word occurs in the American Standard Revised Version and in the English Revised Version in Ex 6:6.
