Concise Bible Dictionary
:
1. ashishah, treated in the A. V. as a measure, but now generally understood to signify a “cake of
raisins
,” the raisins being pressed into a cake, in the same way that figs are. In
2 Samuel 6:19
19
And he dealt among all the people, even among the whole multitude of Israel, as well to the women as men, to every one a cake of bread, and a good piece of flesh, and a flagon of wine. So all the people departed every one to his house. (2 Samuel 6:19)
and
1 Chronicles 16:3
3
And he dealt to every one of Israel, both man and woman, to every one a loaf of bread, and a good piece of flesh, and a flagon of wine. (1 Chronicles 16:3)

wine
” have been added. In
Song of
Solomon

it is simply “flagons.” In Hosea 3:1 The words “of wine” are not added, but should be translated, as in the margin, “of
grapes
,” signifying as before “
cakes
of raisins.”

bottle

24
