(All modern translations have "his tent" but the Hebrew spelling of this word should be translated as "her tent." The Hebrew spelling may be in error but, in the modern Bedouin culture, which is very similar to the Ancient Hebrew culture, the family tent is owned by the wife. Therefore, it is possible that the Hebrew text may use the word "her tent" in reference to this cultural context. The phrase "he called out in the title" may also be translated as "he met with the title.")
