 * the husk thereof.  or, his scrip, or garment.
   Note:  Parched corn, or corn to be parched; full ears before
   they are ripe, parched on the fire:  a very frequent food in
   the East.  The loaves were probably extremely small, as their
   loaves of bread still are in eastern countries.  But small as
   this may appear, it would be a considerable present in the
   time of famine; though very inadequate to the number of
   persons.  Baal-shalisha, of which the person who made this
   seasonable present was an inhabitant, was situated, according
   to Eusebius and Jerome, fifteen miles north of Diospolis, or
   Lydda.
