    (1.) Heb. miphtan, probably a projecting beam at a higher point
    than the threshold proper (1 Sam. 5:4,5; Ezek. 9:3; 10:4,18;
    46:2; 47:1); also rendered "door" and "door-post."

    "storehouses" in the Revised Version. In 1 Chr. 26:15, 17 the

    the Revised Version it is translated "storehouses."
