<p> ''''' kus´tum ''''' (usage): In the Old Testament, except, [[Genesis]] 31:35 where the Revised Version (British and American) renders, better, "manner" ( דּרך , <i> ''''' derekh ''''' </i> , "way"), the words translated "custom" are <i> ''''' ḥōḳ ''''' </i> , <i> ''''' ḥuḳḳāh ''''' </i> , "statute," and <i> ''''' mishpāṭ ''''' </i> , "judgment." Such passages as Judges 11:39; Jeremiah 32:11 , and especially Ezra 3:4 (the King James Version "custom," the Revised Version (British and American) "ordinance"), illustrate the difficulty of deciding upon the proper translation, in cases where "custom" might become "statute," "usage" establish itself as "law."
