3. Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary
College
   Heb. mishneh (2 Kings 22:14; 2 Chr. 34:22), rendered in Revised
   Version "second quarter", the residence of the prophetess
   Huldah. The Authorized Version followed the Jewish commentators,
   who, following the Targum, gave the Hebrew word its
   post-Biblical sense, as if it meant a place of instruction. It
   properly means the "second," and may therefore denote the lower
   city (Acra), which was built after the portion of the city on
   Mount Zion, and was enclosed by a second wall.
