cho.reph denotes a season marked in Scripture by seasonal cycles, agricultural timing, and contrast with summer.

The attested use denotes a seasonal period, most often set beside summer or within recurring seasonal cycles; it also supplies the setting for farming, a house designation, and a construct expression for “the days of my autumn.”

   The absolute singular form occurs in seasonal contrasts: in Genesis 8:22 the APB renders a sequence of “summer and winter,” and in Psalm 74:17 it renders that God made “both summer and winter.” The same seasonal setting appears in Amos 3:15 and Jeremiah 36:22 with a winter house, in Proverbs 20:4 in the sluggard’s failure to plow, and in Zechariah 14:8 in water flowing “in summer and in autumn alike.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB varies between “winter” in Genesis 8:22, Psalm 74:17, Amos 3:15, and Jeremiah 36:22, and “autumn” in Job 29:4, Proverbs 20:4, and Zechariah 14:8. These renderings show the verse-level presentation rather than separate lexical senses.
