International Standard Bible Encyclopedia

rōl´ing : Isaiah 17:13 , the King James Version "like a rolling thing before the whirlwind," a noncommittal translation of גּלגּל , galgal , "revolving thing," "wheel" (Ecclesiastes 12:6 ). the Revised Version (British and American) "like the whirling dust before the storm" is probably right. See CHAFF; DUST; STUBBLE .
