The Lxx. adds in chap. xlviii. 7, inяоdрóμоs, cursus equi, a common measure among the Arabians, about an hour's journey, or nearly equal to a French mile. The Chaldee version has kérūv..aaroña, aratio terræ, from kěrav, aravit, and hence jugerum, as much as a yoke of oxen will plough in a day, being 246 feet in length, and 120 feet in breadth. According to the best modern accounts, Rachel's tomb appears to have been half way between Jerusalem and Bethlehem, or about three miles from the latter.

So Jonathan, Kimchi, and Jarchi, and the Rabbins generally, and also the Arabic and Veneto-Greek versions, interpret this word; with which opinion Dr. A. Clarke coincides, and thinks it probable that from this Anah or Eneh, the Enetæ derived at least their fabulous origin, whom Homer (Iliad, ii. v. 852.) mentions as famous for their race of wild mules. The Samaritan text has ha-aeimïm', and the Samaritan version oam aeimā ēi, "the Emim," a gigantic and warlike people bordering on the Horites, (ch. xiv. 15.); and so also Aquila and Symmachus have rous 'Iapp, and Onkelos, gi'bara'yaa, giants; for which interpretation Bochart strenously contends, (Hieroz. lib. ii. cap. 12.) The Syriac version has mayoa, "waters," probably reading with one MS. ma'yim. Jerome renders it aquas calidas," warm springs," according to whom yemim' continued to have this signification in Punic; and if this interpretation be correct, perhaps those of Callirrhoë may be meant, which were in the country spoken of. 66 |
