To pass the night (Hebrew luwn ). Isaiah 10:29, the Assyrian invaders "have taken their lodging (their bivouac) at Geba." Song of Solomon 7:11; Nehemiah 4:22. The "lodge" (Isaiah 1:8), and "cottage" (Isaiah 24:20), "the earth shall reel to and fro ... and be removed as a cottage," refer to a temporary hut, or in the latter passage a hammock suspended from trees, to secure from wild beasts the watcher of gardens or lands in the night.
