Earing
An Old English word (from the Latin aro, I plough), meaning “ploughing.” It is used in the Authorized Version in Gen 45:6; Ex 34:21; 1 Sam 8:12; Deut 21:4; Isa 30:24; but the Revised Version has rendered the original in these places by the ordinary word to plough or till.
From Easton’s Bible Dictionary (1897), by Matthew George Easton.
