International Standard Bible Encyclopedia
SCUM

skum (chel'ah; Septuagint ios, "poison" or "verdigris"; compare Plato Rep. 609a): The word is only found in Ezekiel 24:6, 11, 12, where the Revised Version (British and American) translates it "rust." The fact, however, that the caldron is of brass and therefore not liable to rust, and the astonishment expressed that the fire did not remove it (24:12), would seem to point to the preferability of the translation "scum," the residue of dirt adhering to the caldron from previous use.

Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary
1. (n.) The extraneous matter or impurities which rise to the surface of liquids in boiling or fermentation, or which form on the surface by other means; also, the scoria of metals in a molten state; dross.

2. (v.) refuse; recrement; anything vile or worthless.

3. (v. t.) To take the scum from; to clear off the impure matter from the surface of; to skim.

4. (v. t.) To sweep or range over the surface of.

5. (v. i.) To form a scum; to become covered with scum. Also used figuratively.
