Pannag

PANNAG păn’ ăg (פַנַּ֨ג). The KJV mistranslates פַנַּ֨ג as a place name, “in thy market wheat of...Pannag” (Ezek 27:17).

Pannag is possibly a type of sorghum, called “dhura” in Pal.—a maize-like grass.

The Syr. tr. records it as millet (Panicum miliaceum). In the margin of the ASV it is called “a kind of confection.” The meaning must remain one of the mysteries of the Bible.
