Famine <1,,3042, limos>
is translated "hunger" in Luk 15:17, 2Co 11:27; elsewhere it signifies "a famine," and is so translated in each place in the RV; the AV has the word "dearth" in Act 7:11, Act 11:28, and "hunger" in Rev 6:8; the RV "famine" is preferable there; see Mat 24:7, Mar 13:8, Luk 4:25, Luk 15:14, Luk 21:11, Rom 8:35, Rev 18:8. See HUNGER.
