Strong’s Greek Lexicon
from another form of the base of G3582; timber (as fuel or material); by implication a stick, club or tree or other wooden article or substance:—staff, stocks, tree, wood.
Owing to changes in the enumeration while in progress, there were no words left for numbers 2717 and 3203–3302, which were therefore silently dropped out of the vocabulary and references as redundant.
