Green ears of corn - Rather, “fresh ears of corn;” that is, just-ripe grain, freshly gathered. Parched grain, such as is here spoken of, is a common article of food in Syria and Egypt, and was very generally eaten in ancient times. Beaten out - Not rubbed out by the hands, as described in Luke 6:1, but bruised or crushed so as to form groats. return to 'Top of Page' Footnotes: Copyright Statement These files are public domain.
