Earing

Easton's Bible Dictionary

An Old English word (from the Latin aro, I plough), meaning “ploughing.” It is used in the Authorized Version in Gen 45:6; Exod 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.

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia

er'-ing (harish):

The Hebrew word is twice translated "earing" in the King James Version (Gen 45:6; Exod 34:21). The Revised Version (British and American) rendering is "plowing": "There shall be neither plowing nor harvest."

See also Deut 21:4; 1 Sam 8:12; Isa 30:24.
