Yarn

Yarn. [N] [E]

The notice of yarn is contained in an extremely obscure passage in ( 1 Kings 10:28 ; 2 Chronicles 1:16 ) The Hebrew Received Text is questionable. Gesenius gives the sense of "number" as applying equally to the merchants and the horses: "A band of the kings merchants bought a drove (of horses) at a price."
