In obedience to your desire and also to the many inquiries that have been made from time to time from many brethren — for the correct rendition of the Hebrew words used in the Masonic Ritual-I will endeavour this evening to explain in as brief a manner as possible yet lucid and comprehensive, all the words in the order we find them.
SHEBOLES -An ear of Corn, that is the growth of an ear of corn by the capillary attraction of water is derived from shovarl - to grow up, to produce, or even to go up, as in Genesis 41, 5, Isiah 17. It also denotes a stream, as in Psalm 6, 9.
The Hebrew word for plenty, or was satisfied, is Sovong.
