The LXX. translate ψυκτῆρες, "wine-coolers;" the Vulgate has phialae, "vases;" the apocryphal Esdras, σπονδεῖα, "vessels for drink-offerings." Probably basons or bowls are intended. Knives. Machaldaphim, another rare word of doubtful sense. The LXX. render παρηλλαγμένα, "changes," regarding the word as derived from חלã, "to exchange." The apocryphal Esdras has θυίσκαι "censers." But the most usual translation is that of the A. V., "knives." Parallel Commentaries ...
