2 Chronicles32:29
2Ch 32:29
And cities (?) made (procured) he for himself. ערים cannot in this connection denote the usual cities; it must mean either watch-towers (from עוּר, to watch) or dwelling-places for herds and cattle, since עיר, according to 2Ki 17:9, is used of any enclosed place, from a watch-tower to a fenced city. רכוּשׁ, as in 2Ch 31:3, of possessions in herds.
