- the son.

 - And take.
   * 1Ki 13:7 1Sa 9:7,8 2Ki 4:42; 5:5,15; 8:7-9
- with thee.  Heb. in thine hand.  cracknels.  or, cakes.
  {Nikkoodim,} spotted, or perforated cakes; either, as some
  suppose, thin cakes pierced through with holes, the same as is
  called Jews' bread to the present day, and used by them at the
  passover; or, as Mr. Harmer imagines, cakes spotted with
  seeds, as with sesamum, Roman coriander, etc., such as he
  proves from Rauwolff, Russell, and Hanway, are still used in
  the East.  This was certainly not a present that proclaimed
  royalty; but it does not appear to have been, in the
  estimation of the East, a present only fit for a country woman
  to have made, as Bp. Patrick supposes:  for D'Arvieux informs
  us, that when he waited on an Arab emir, his mother and
  sisters sent him a present of pastry, honey, and fresh butter,
  with a bason of sweetmeats of Damascus.

  Tirzah was a city of Ephraim, to which tribe Jeroboam
  belonged; and appears to have been pleasantly situated, as it
  is said in So 6:4, "Thou art beautiful, O my love, as Tirzah,"
  though its precise situation cannot now be ascertained.  It
  seems to have been the royal city, and the seat of government
  for a long time after the revolt of the ten tribes, till Omri
  built Samaria.

   * :21
- Abijam.
  Dr. Kennicott observes, that the name of this king of Judah is
  now expressed three ways; here and in four other places, it is
  Abijam; in two others (2 Ch 20 13:20, 21) it is Abijahu; but in
  eleven others it is Abijah or Abiah, as it is expressed by St.
  Matthew, (ch. 7 1:7,) [            ;] and this is the reading of
  thirteen of Kennicott's and De Rossi's MSS., and of thirteen
  respectable editions of the Hebrew Bible.  The Syriac is the
  same.  The Septuagint in the London Polyglott has [         ,]
  Abihu; but in the Complutensian and Antwerp Polyglotts it has
  [            ,] Abiah; and the Editio Princeps of the Vulgate,
  some MSS. and the text in these two Polyglotts, instead of
  Abiam, have Abia.

   * 1Ch 3:10
- Abia.
   * 2Ch 12:16
- Abijah.
   * Mt 1:7
- Abia.
