Earing

Easton's Dictionary

An Old English word (from the Latin aro, I plough), meaning “ploughing.” It is used in the Authorized Version in Gen. 45:6; Ex. 34:21; 1 Sam. 8:12; Deut. 21:4; Isa. 30:24; but the Revised Version has rendered the original in these places by the ordinary word to plough or till.

Smith's Dictionary

(Genesis 45:6; Exodus 34:21) Derived from the Latin arare, to plough; hence it means ploughing.
