Chest
        

1. 'Aron, always, except twice (Joseph's coffin and Jehoiada's alms chest, Genesis 50:26; 2 Kings 12:9-10), used for the ark of the covenant; the "ark" (teebah) of Noah, and that of bulrushes in which Moses was put, is quite distinct.
        2. Genazim, "chests of rich apparel" (Ezekiel 27:24), from ganaz "to hoard."
