Till (Verb) <1,,1090, georgeo>
"to till the ground," is used in the Passive Voice in Heb 6:7, RV, "it is tilled" (AV, "... dressed"). Moulton and Milligan point out that, agriculture being the principal industry in Egypt, this word and its cognates (georgion, see HUSBANDRY, and georgos, see HUSBANDMAN) are very common in the papyri with reference to the cultivation of private allotments and the crown lands.
