<p> HUSK, n. The external covering of certain fruits or seeds of plants. It is the calyx of the flower or glume of corn and grasses, formed of valves embracing the seed. The husks of the small grains, when separated, are called chaff but in [[America]] we apply the word chiefly to the covering of the ears or seeds of maiz, which is never denominated chaff. It is sometimes used in [[England]] for the rind, skin or hull of seeds. </p> <p> HUSK, To strip off the external integument or covering of the fruits or seeds of plants as, to husk maiz. </p> | |||

<p> In the O.T. it is the skin of grapes. Numbers 6:4; see 2 Kings 4:42 , <i> margin. </i> In the N.T. it is κεράτιον, which is the fruit, not the husk, of the carob tree. It is abundant in Syria, and the pods, containing a sweet pith-like substance, are food for cattle and pigs: it is occasionally eaten by the very poor. It is also termed 'St. John's Bread,' owing to the tradition that John the [[Baptist]] used its fruit in the desert. Quantities of the pods have been imported into [[England]] under the name of locust beans, and used as food for horses. Luke 15:16 . </p> | |||
