Armoury

Easton's Bible Dictionary

The place in which armour was deposited when not used (Nehemiah 3:19; Jeremiah 50:25). At first each man of the Hebrews had his own arms, because all went to war. There were no arsenals or magazines for arms till the time of David, who had a large collection of arms, which he consecrated to the Lord in his tabernacle (1 Sa, 21:9; 2 Samuel 8:7-12; 1 Chronicles 26:26, 27).
