Storehouses

stor'-houz-iz, -ez:

The following chief changes in the use of this word (representing various Hebrew words) in the Revised Version (British and American) to be noted are: In Deuteronomy 28:8, the Revised Version (British and American) has "barns" ('acamim); in 1 Chronicles 27:25, "treasures" ('otsroth); in Nehemiah 12:25, for "thresholds" has "storehouses" ('asuppim), so, for "Asuppim" in 1 Chronicles 26:15,17 ("house of Asuppim," "toward Asuppim") has "store-house"; in Luke 12:24, for "storehouse" has "store-chamber" (tameion). In other passages the King James Version "storehouse" is retained (Genesis 41:56; 2 Chronicles 32:28, mickenoth; Psalms 33:7, 'otsroth; Jeremiah 50:26, ma'abhucim).
