  Meadow
     (1.) Heb. ha'ahu (Gen. 41:2, 18), probably an Egyptain word
     transferred to the Hebrew; some kind of reed or water-plant. In
     the Revised Version it is rendered "reed-grass", i.e., the sedge
     or rank grass by the river side.
     
       (2.) Heb. ma'areh (Judg. 20:33), pl., "meadows of Gibeah"
     (R.V., after the LXX., "Maareh-geba"). Some have adopted the
     rendering "after Gibeah had been left open." The Vulgate
     translates the word "from the west."
