("visitation".) Jeremiah 50:21. Symbolical name for Babylon as doomed to be visited with judgment. In Ezekiel 23:23 simply a prefecture. Maurer translated, as descriptive epithets subjoined to "all the Chaldaeans," Ρekod (pakid ), Shoa , Κoa , "prefects, rich, princely." Otherwise, if a symbolical name here also, Pekod is "inflicter of," "visiting with, judgment," namely, upon Judah, "Aholibah."
