TRAIN

tran (verb chanakh, "educate" (Proverbs 22:6), with adjective chanikh (Genesis 14:14)): In 1 Ki 10:2 the Queen of Sheba's "train," the noun is chayil, the usual word for "force," "army." But in Isaiah 6:1 the "train" (shul, "loose hanging garment") is that of God's robe (the Revised Version margin "skirts").
