Jackals never hunt alone, but assemble in packs of twenty to fifty or more, as a rule. In this habit they differ entirely from the fox, which is under no circumstances gregarious. From this fact it is most probable that 'jackals' were the animals turned loose in pairs by Samson (Judg. xv. 4) amongst the standing corn of the Philistines, with firebrands tied to their tails. It would be absolutely impossible that any such stratagem should succeed with foxes, who would inevitably pull in opposite directions, no matter how long a line might be given to the brand drawn by each couple. But jackals, accustomed to hunt in droves, might go straight across through fields and crops. Moreover the difficulty of procuring three hundred foxes would be very great, since the animals were very much fewer in number, and would require to be captured singly. An experiment to see how jackals actually would behave under such treatment would be very interesting, if it could be conducted without cruelty. In the Authorized Version the word 'jackal' does not occur. It will be seen, however, that it is probable the animal was intended in many passages. Further instances will be found in the article Behemoth, where I have endeavoured to show that iyyim, translated ' wild beasts of the islands, ' should be rendered 'jackal.' Frog (Heb. yrSS tsephardea). Frogs are mentioned in the Bible in connection with the second of the Egyptian plagues (Exod. viii.), and again in Ps. Ixxviii. 45, cv. 30. In Rev. xvi. 13 uncleanspirits are spoken of as being in the likeness of frogs which came out of the mouth of the dragon. There is only one species of true frog in Egypt at present. Thi..

Download or read book Plant World of the Bible written by Hans Arne Jensen and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2012-08-03 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dream of paradise and the use of plants in story telling are as old as man. The Bible readers need only turn a few pages before meeting a description of paradise and a whole world of known and unknown plants such as: aloe, barley, bdellium, cedar, fig, frankincense, pomegranate, olive, vine and general terms like the lily of the fields. Not only Bible readers, but everyone interested in botany, archaeology, or vegetation history can find subjects of interest in the book, for references are made both to the rich use of plants in the Bible as well as to use of plants in the surrounding coeval cultures. PLANT WORLD OF THE BIBLE includes a comprehensive list of biblical plants, found in archaeological excavations in Israel and surrounding countries. For the first time it is now possible, for most of the biblical plants, to refer to archaeological finds, dated to the biblical period. "I find that Dr. Jensens work is not only accurate but it is also very interesting. This work should be accepted and enjoyed world wide. Dr Arnold L. Larsen, Director and Professor emeritus, Colorado State University, Ft. Collins, Colorado, USA. It is a great pleasure for me to recommend the book PLANT WORLD OF THE BIBLE authored by Hans Arne Jensen. This book is a careful description of all plants mentioned in the Bible. It provides a botanical description of each plant, a discussion of its identification, as well as its occurrences in the Bible. Furthermore, it contains valuable information on archaeological finds of the plants. It is well structured and with beautiful colour illustrations and black/white drawings. The book is a result of the authors thorough botanic knowledge and it is based on recent international scholarly and scientific literature within various fields such as biblical studies, archaeology, and cultural history. Thus, the book is the successful outcome of an interdisciplinary work. It is an important contribution to the study of the cultural history of the plants as well as the cultural background of the Bible. I have no doubt that this book will generate a widespread interest among Biblical readers as well as academics such as botanists, archaeologists, cultural history scholars and biblical scholars. Dr. Bodil Ejrns, Assoc. Professor of the Old Testament, Faculty of Theology, University of Copenhagen, Denmark. PLANT WORLD OF THE BIBLE is a book of high quality, seriously written with knowledge not only from botany but also from archaeology and theologyThe illustrations deserves a special attention. The whole page plates are from about 100 years BC to about 300 years AC and are in that way uniquePLANT WORLD OF THE BIBLE is written in a language, which is possible to understand without special knowledge in botany or theology, it is possible to read for all .I highly recommend an English publication of the book. Dr. Erik Nymann Eriksen, Professor emeritus, Department of Horticulture, University of Copenhagen, Denmark. a masterpiece that joins the Sacred with Nature and which will delight not only the faithful but also those who have a passion for botany, archaeology and history.

Download or read book Figs Dates Laurel and Myrrh written by Lytton John Musselman and published by Timber Press. This book was released on 2007-11-01 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book celebrates the plants of the Old Testament and New Testament, including the Apocrypha, and of the Quran. From acacia, the wood of the tabernacle, to wormwood, whose bitter leaves cured intestinal worms, 81 fascinating chapters—covering every plant that has a true botanical counterpart—tell the stories of the fruits and grains, grasses and trees, flowers and fragrances of ancient lore. The descriptions include the plants' botanical characteristics, habitat, uses, and literary context. With evocative quotations and revelatory interpretations, this information is all the more critical today as the traditional agrarian societies that knew the plants intimately become urbanized. The unusually broad geographic range of this volume extends beyond Israel to encompass the Holy Land's biblical neighbors from southern Turkey to central Sudan and from Cyprus to the Iraq border. Richly illustrated with extensive color photography and with a foreword by the incomparable Garrison Keillor, this delightful ecumenical botany offers the welcome tonic of a deep look into an enduring, shared natural heritage.
