STUFF

stuf (keli; skeuos): "Material" for any purpose (Ezekiel 12:3, 4, 7); or "supplies" in a more general sense (Exodus 36:7, Hebrew mela'-khah; compare the King James Version, the English Revised Version 1 Samuel 10:22; 1 Samuel 25:13; 1 Samuel 30:24 (the American Standard Revised Version substitutes "baggage")); frequently, "household possessions" (Genesis 31:37; Genesis 45:20 Exodus 22:7 Joshua 7:11 Nehemiah 13:8; Jdt 16:19; the King James Version Judith 15:11 (skeuasmata, the Revised Version (British and American) "furniture"); the King James Version Luke 17:31, where the Revised Version (British and American) reads "goods"). "Mingled stuff" is the translation of sha'aTnez in the Revised Version (British and American) instead of "garment of divers sorts" the King James Version (Deuteronomy 22:11).
