    (1.) Hebrew _atad_, Judg. 9:14; rendered "thorn," Ps. 58:9. The
    LXX. and Vulgate render by rhamnus, a thorny shrub common in
    Palestine, resembling the hawthorn.

    in 1 Sam. 13:6; "thistles" in 2 Kings 14:9, 2 Chr. 25:18, Job
    31:40; "thorns" in 2 Chr. 33:11, Cant. 2:2, Hos. 9:6. The word
    may be regarded as denoting the common thistle, of which there
    are many species which encumber the corn-fields of Palestine.
