מַעֲדַנּוֺת noun [feminine] plural Job 38:31 see below ענד; מַעֲדַנֹּת 1Sam 15:32 is dubious; = above, as adverb accusative in bonds, fetters, Ki Gr Klo; ᵑ7 Symm Dr assign to √ עדן = delicately, voluptuously; but ᵐ5 τρέμων, whence LagProph. Chald. li proposes מְעֹדַנִּת (compare אֲחֹרַנִּית) √ מעד = totteringly, so HPS. מַעְדֵּר see עדר.
