הֹ֫צֶן noun [masculine] derivation & meaning dubious; only Ezek 23:24 וּבָאוּ עָלַיִךְ הֹצֶן רֶכֶב וְגַלְגַּל; text probably in error: ᵐ5 מִצָּפוֺן so Co (compare Ezek 26:7); ᵑ6 ᵑ7 with arms; Hi הָצֵן, Infinitive Hiph`il of √ צנן, with rattling; Ew חֹצֶן (so Manuscripts) with shoulder as place of carrying weapon; Bö Sm חֲמוֺן multitude; DlBaer's Ezech. xi. gains like sense without emendation by comparing Assyrian êƒin (-ši) collect, gather, Flood Tabl.ii. 25 ff., but this very dubious. הַר see below הרר.
