<p> '''''kan´ō̇''''' -'''''pi''''' ( חפה , <i> '''''ḥuppāh''''' </i> , from a root meaning "to enclose" or "cover"): Isaiah 4:5 the King James Version has "defence," the English Revised Version "canopy," the American Standard Revised Version "covering," the last being best, though "canopy" has much in its favor. In [[Psalm]] 19:5 (Hebrews 19:6) <i> '''''ḥuppāh''''' </i> is used of the bridegroom's chamber and in Joel 2:16 of the bride's. Among the Hebrews the <i> '''''ḥuppāh''''' </i> was originally the chamber in which the bride awaited the groom for the marital union. In [[Judith]] 10:21; 13:9, 15; 16:19 the word canopy occurs as the English equivalent of the [[Greek]] κωνωπεῖον , <i> '''''kōnōpeı́on''''' </i> , which was primarily a mosquito-net and then a canopy over a bed, whether for useful or for decorative purposes. </p> | |||
