trān (verb חנך , ḥānakh , "educate" ( Proverbs 22:6 ), with adjective ḥānı̄kh (Genesis 14:14 )): In 1 Kings 10:2 the Queen of Sheba's "train," the noun is חיל , ḥayı̄l , the usual word for "force," "army." But in Isaiah 6:1 the "train" ( שׁוּל , shūl , "loose hanging garment") is that of God's robe (the Revised Version margin "skirts").
