Theological / Devotional

Chapmen. Heb. ’anshe hattarim, translated “merchantmen” in 1 Kings 10:15. Tarim is from tur, which means “to seek out,” “to spy out,” “to explore,” and probably denotes a merchant as one who seeks out or explores. The word translated “merchants” is from a root meaning “to travel about.”
