Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Leviticus 11:5

COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD

5. the coney —not the rabbit, for it is not found in Palestine or Arabia, but the hyrax, a little animal of the size and general shape of the rabbit, but differing from it in several essential features. It has no tail, singular, long hairs bristling like thorns among the fur on its back; its feet are bare, its nails flat and round, except those on each inner toe of the hind feet, which are sharp and project like an awl. It does not burrow in the ground but frequents the clefts of rocks. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-6" class="com-number"
