**The whole BDB entry:** vb. prob. (si vera l.) help (Aramaic loan-word, Syriac ܥܕܰܪ, 𝔗 עֲדַר (rare) = Heb. עזר q.v.; \> Thes, assuming meaning arrange, order);— Inf. cstr. לַעֲדֹר 1 Ch 12:34 (Baer Ginsb; van d. H. v 33; this meaning also 𝔊 𝔙); but לַעֲוֹר (cf. v 18, 22, 23. van d. H. v 17, 21, 22), so Kau Buhl; Pt. pl. cstr. עֹדְרֵי מַעֲרָכָה v 39 (van d. H. v 38), read עֹרְכֵי (q.v. v 34) 𝔊 Kau; see ערך.
