Dict: easton - Rye



easton:



Rye @ =Rie, (Heb. kussemeth), found in kjv@Exodus:9:32; kjv@Isaiah:28:25, in all of which the margins of the Authorized and of the Revised Versions have "spelt." This Hebrew word also occurs in kjv@Ezekiel:4:9, where the Authorized Version has "fitches' (q.v.) and the Revised Version "spelt." This, there can be no doubt, was the Triticum spelta, a species of hard, rough-grained wheat.
