A vehicle of transportation with two or four wooden wheels. The two wheeler was usually called a cart. Wagons were used to transport people and goods (Genesis 45:17-21 ). Sometimes, wagons were used as instruments of war (Ezekiel 23:24 ). Wagons were usually pulled by oxen. The use of the wagon was quite different than that of the chariot. See Transportation and Travel .
