What are Mowings?
MOW'INGS
, KING'S. Grass cut with a sickle (never with a scythe) was used in Palestine for "soiling" cattle, but not made into hay, as in colder countries. The "mower" was always a reaper. Amos 7:1, seems to allude to some right of the king to the first grass in certain districts for his cavalry horses.
