Lower Parts Of The Earth
( ), properly valleys (Isa 44:23); hence, by extension, Sheol, or the under-world, as the place of departed spirits (Psa 63:9; Eph 4:9), and by meton any hidden place, as the womb (Psalm 131:15). In the original of Eze 26:20; Eze 32:18; Eze 32:24, the words are transposed, and used in the second sense.
