Husbandman

γεωργός

KJV term for one who tills the soil; a farmer. Husbandry refers to farming. Modern translations replace husbandman and husbandry with other terms. The substitutions of the RSV are typical; plowman (Isaiah 61:5 ); farmer (2 Chronicles 26:10; Jeremiah 14:4; Jeremiah 31:24; Jeremiah 51:23; Amos 5:16 ); tiller of the soil (Genesis 9:20; Joel 1:11 ). The KJV's “ye are God's husbandry” was rendered with “you are God's field.” See Farmer; Agriculture; Occupations.
