part: "to part" as a verb is no longer in good use (except in a few special phrases, compareRu 1:17), but is obscure only inPr 18:18, where the meaning is "break up their quarrel" (compare2Sa 14:6). the Revised Version (British and American) has not changed the King James Version's usage, except (strangely) in1Sa 30:24, where "share" is written. For the noun seePORTION.
