Subjects in this Topic:
VULTURE.—1. dâ’âh, Lev_11:14, dayyâh or dayyôth, Deu_14:13 AV [Note: Authorized Version.] ; in both passages RV [Note: Revised Version.] has ‘kite.’ 2. ’ayyâh, Job_28:7 AV [Note: Authorized Version.] ; RV [Note: Revised Version.] ‘falcon.’ These words certainly refer to some of the smaller birds of prey: the larger vultures are included in nesher, for which see Eagle.
