βάλανος G90976

Home gloss

acorn-tree

Instead of (KJV / RSV)

oak / oak / oak

Note

The tree that bears the acorn (βάλανος is also the acorn itself); in Gen 35:8 and Isa 2:13; 6:13 for Hebrew אַלּוֹן and אֵלָה. Kept apart from δρῦς "oak" and τερέβινθος "terebinth," as the Masoretic version keeps אַלּוֹן from אֵלוֹן (112)
