Subjects in this Topic:
TACHES.—An old word of French origin used by AV [Note: Authorized Version.] to render the Heb. qĕâsîm, which occurs only in P [Note: Priestly Narrative.] ’s description of the Tabernacle (Exo_26:6; Exo_26:11; Exo_26:33; Exo_35:11 etc.). The Gr. rendering denotes the rings set in eyelets at the edge of a sail for the ropes to pass through. The Heb. word evidently signifies some form of hook or clasp (so RV [Note: Revised Version.] ) like the Roman fibula.
