Brown-Driver-Briggs Expanded Definition

I. כִּידוֺן noun [masculine] dart, javelin (Late Hebrew id.) — absolute ׳כ Joshua 8:18 6t.; כִּידֹן Jeremiah 50:42; construct כִּידוֺן 1 Samuel 17:6; — dart, javelin (distinct from חֲנִית spear, lance, q. v.), אשׁר ביד (ךׅ׳נטה בַּכּ Joshua 8:18 (twice in verse), compare Joshua 8:26; ׳רַעַשׁ כּ Job 41:21 the rushing sound of a dart; בְּהֶרֶב׳וּבַחֲנִית וּבְכ 1 Samuel 17:45 (weapons of Goliath), ׳כנְחשֶׁת בֵּין כְּתֵפָיו 1 Samuel 17:6 (חֲנִית in 1 Samuel 17:7); + חֲנִית Job 39:23 also; ׳קֶשֶׁת וְכ Jeremiah 6:23; Jeremiah 50:42.

Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

כִּידוֹן m.

(1) a dart, javelin (different from חֲנִית a lance), Job 39:23, 41:21 1 Samuel 17:6, 45 1 Samuel 17:45; Joshua 8:18, 26 Joshua 8:26; Jeremiah 6:23, 50:42. The etymology is uncertain: Bochart (Hieroz. i., p. 135-40) not unaptly derives it from כִּיד destruction, war; so that it would be a weapon of war (compare חֶרֶב sword, and حَرْبُ war). It might also be from the root כִּיד or כּוּדin the sense of invading, breaking in; compare גּוּד No. 2.

(2) [Chidon], pr.n. of a place near Jerusalem. גֹּרֶן כִּידוֹן (the threshing-floor of the dart) 1 Chronicles 13:9, for which in the parallel place there is, 2 Samuel 6:6, גֹּרֶן נָכוֹן (prepared threshing floor).
