Dict: easton - Cane

easton:

Cane @ a tall sedgy plant with a hollow stem, growing in moist places. In kjv@Isaiah:43:24; kjv@Jeremiah:6:20, the Hebrew word kaneh is thus rendered, giving its name to the plant. It is rendered "reed" in kjvKings:14:15; kjv@Job:40:21; kjv@Isaiah:19:6 kjv@Isaiah:35:7. In kjv@Psalms:68:30 the expression "company of spearmen" is in the margin and the Revised Version "beasts of the reeds," referring probably to the crocodile or the hippopotamus as a symbol of Egypt. In kjv@2Kings:18:21; kjv@Isaiah:36:6; kjv@Ezekiel:29:6-7, the reference is to the weak, fragile nature of the reed. (
