In this sense it was understood by the Targumist, who renders it, {ittetha pundekeetha,} "a woman, a tavern-keeper," and so St. Chrysostome, in his second sermon on Repentance, calls her [pandokeutria.] The Greek [porné,] by which the LXX. render it, and which is adopted by the Apostles, is derived from [pernaó,] to sell, and is also supposed to denote a tavern keeper. Among the ancients, women generally kept houses of entertainment. Herodotus says, "Among the Egyptians, the women carry on all commercial concerns, and keep taverns, while the men continue at home and weave." The same custom prevailed among the Greeks. 6:17,25; Mt 1:5Rachab.21:31; Heb 11:31; Jas 2:25lodged. Heb. lay.Mark 6:7

1 Christ sends out at once seventy disciples to work miracles, and to preach;13 pronounces a woe against certain cities.17 The seventy return with joy; he shows them wherein to rejoice, and thanks his Father for his grace;23 magnifies the happy estate of his church;25 teaches the lawyer how to attain eternal life, and to take every one for his neighbour that needs his mercy;38 reprehends Martha, and commends Mary her sister. these.Mt 10:1-4; Mr 6:7-13other seventy.Rather, seventy others, as Dr. Campbell renders; for the expression other seventy implies that there were seventy sent before, which was not the case: it seems to refer to the twelve apostles whom our Lord had previously chosen.
