TORMAH . In the margin of Judges 9:31 ‘in Tormah’ is given as an alternative rendering of the Hebrew word translated ‘craftily’ (AV [Note: Authorized Version.] ‘privily’). Some commentators have suggested that Tormah is a corruption of Arumah ( Judges 9:41 ).
Fausset's Bible Dictionary [3]
Judges 9:31, margin for "privily." The Septuagint, Chaldee, and Rashi translated "secretly"; Hebrew "in deceit," as he had listened to the speech quietly with apparent assent. But Kimchi "in Tormah" a misspelling for Arumah ( Judges 9:41).
