Audience (Hastings' Dictionary)

Now 'the people gathered tohear,' signifies always in AV after Lat. atidientia, the act of hearing or attention to what is spoken. In OT the word is simply 'ears' (D:jm), as Gn '23'" ' in the a. of the children of Heth.' In NT ' give a.' occurs Ac 13'" 15'" 22=''', where the Gr. is simply d/toi'-u, hear ; so Lk 20''' 'in the a. of all the people' ; but Lk 7' ' when he had ended all his sayings in the a. of the people,' the Gr. is eh rdt d«-ods, ' in the ears.' J. Hastings. AUGIA (Ai>yla), lEsS".

— A daughter of Zorzelleua or IJarzillai. Her descendants by Jaddus were among the priests who could not trace their gene- alogy after the return under Zerubbabel, and were removed from the priesthood. Her name is not given in the lists of Ezr and Neh, and is omitted here by the Vulg. ; perhaps it has ari.sen out of ' the Gileadite,' whicu follows Barzillai in those lists. U. St. J. Thackeray.
