These were slight fabrics, and were removed when no longer needed, or were left to be blown down in winter ( Job 27:18 ). A lodging-place (rendered "lodge" in Isaiah 1:8 ); a slighter structure than the "booth," as the cucumber patch is more temporary than a vineyard ( Isaiah 24:20 ). It denotes a frail structure of boughs supported on a few poles, which is still in use in the East, or a hammock suspended between trees, in which the watchman was accustomed to sleep during summer. In Zephaniah 2:6 it is the rendering of the Hebrew Keroth , which some suppose to denote rather "pits" (RSV marg., "caves") or "wells of water," such as shepherds would sink.
