6:27; Eze 8:6-18; 14:23 children.44:17-19,25; 1Co 10:22queen of heaven. or, frame, or workmanship of heaven.Though several MSS. and editions have {melachath,} "workmanship," instead of {melecheth,} "queen" yet the latter reading seems the true one, as the LXX. in the parallel place, and the Vulgate uniformly have "the queen of heaven;" by which there can be little doubt, is meant the Moon.

So the Orphic hymn addressed to the Moon begins [Klythi thea BASILEIA,] Hear, goddess Queen. And Homer, in his Hymn to the Moon, addresses her, [Chaire, anassa, thea] All hail, Queen, goddess. In Epiphanius, we find some women of Arabia, towards the end of the fourth century, had set up another queen of heaven, the Virgin Mary, too well known since under that name and character, whom they likewise worshipped as a goddess, by holding stated assemblies every year to her honour, and by offering a cake of bread in her name; whence these heretics were called Collyridians, from the Greek [kollyris,] a cake. 7:18; 2Ki 17:16as we.19:13; 32:29-32; 2Ki 22:17; Ne 9:34; Da 9:6-8our fathers.Ne 9:34; Ps 106:6; Eze 20:8; Da 9:5,6,8; 1Pe 1:18in the cities.9,21then.Ex 16:3; Isa 48:5; Ho 2:5-9; Php 3:19victuals.
