SCRIPTURE

"store-houses also for the increase of grain and new wine and oil; and stalls for all manner of beasts, and flocks in folds." — 2 Chronicles 32:28 (ASV)

storehouses also.And magazines (2 Chronicles 8:4; Exodus 1:11).

Stalls. —‘ Urâwôth (Syriac, ‘ûrâwôthô). (Compare to ûryôth, 2 Chronicles 9:25; and ă wçrôth, “cotes,” a word only found here.)

All manner of beasts.Every kind of cattle.

Cotes for flocks. —Heb., and flocks for folds. The words appear to have been transposed by some copyist. (Compare to Septuagint, καὶ μάνδρας εἰς τὰ ποίμνια, “and folds for the flocks.” So Vulgate, “et caulas pecorum.” Syriac omits.)
