Note 304 — Chapter V · THE TENT AND “HOME.”
Reading edition
The Jews, even after their sojourn of centuries in the Holy Land, did not lose the habit of dwelling in tents, and probably, as here, there was a city and a nomade population; as, for instance, “The dwellers in tents,” Psa. lxxxiii. 6. “The tents of Israel,” Zech. xii. 7. “The tents of Kedar,” Song i. 5.
