PARCEL

par'-sel: Properly "a little part," in Elizabethan English being used in almost any sense. In the King James Version of Gen 33:19; Josh 24:32; Ruth 4:3; 1 Ch 11:13,14 it is the translation of chelqah; Jn 4:5 of chorion--both the Greek and Hebrew words meaning a "piece of land." the Revised Version (British and American) writes "plot" in 1 Ch 11:13,14, but if the change was needed at all, it should have been made throughout.
