WINTER

win'-ter (choreph, from charaph, "to inundate," "overflow"): The rainy season, also the autumn harvest season (Genesis 8:22 Psalm 74:17 Zechariah 14:8). It is also the time of cold (Jeremiah 36:22 Amos 3:15). The verb "to winter" occurs in Isaiah 18:6. Cethaw has the same meaning as Choreph (Songs 2:11). cheimon, corresponds to choreph as the rainy season, and the verb paracheimazo, signifies "to pass the winter" (Acts 27:12), the noun from which is paracheimasia (same place).

See SEASONS.
