PRESS, PRESSFAT.The former occurs in the OT for the usual winepress in Pro_3:10 (RV [Note: Revised Version.] fats; in modern English, vats), Isa_16:10, where alone it is retained in RV [Note: Revised Version.] , and Joe_3:13 RV [Note: Revised Version.] winepress. Also Hag_2:16 AV [Note: Authorized Version.] , along with the only instance of pressfat (RV [Note: Revised Version.] winefat), as the rendering of a rare word, which RV [Note: Revised Version.] wrongly tr. [Note: translate or translation.] vessels. The passage in question should run: When one came to the winepress (expecting) to draw off fifty (measures [probably baths are intended]) from the wine-trough, there were but twenty. For the ancient winepresses, see Wine and Strong Drink, § 2.
