The meaning of Meadow in the Bible
(From Easton's Bible Dictionary)

  • Heb. ha'ahu (Genesis 41:2,18), probably an Egyptain word transferred to the Hebrew; some kind of reed or water-plant. In the Revised Version it is rendered "reed-grass", i.e., the sedge or rank grass by the river side.

  • Heb. ma'areh (Judges 20:33), pl., "meadows of Gibeah" (RSV, after the LXX., "Maareh-geba"). Some have adopted the rendering "after Gibeah had been left open." The Vulgate translates the word "from the west."
