  Dial
     for the measurement of time, only once mentioned in the Bible,
     erected by Ahaz (2 Kings 20:11; Isa. 38:8). The Hebrew word
     (ma'aloth) is rendered "steps" in Ex. 20:26, 1 Kings 10:19, and
     "degrees" in 2 Kings 20:9, 10, 11. The _ma'aloth_ was probably
     stairs on which the shadow of a column or obelisk placed on the
     top fell. The shadow would cover a greater or smaller number of
     steps, according as the sun was low or high.
     
       Probably the sun-dial was a Babylonian invention. Daniel at
     Babylon (Dan. 3:6) is the first to make mention of the "hour."
