Leviticus 11:18

And the white owl, and the pelican, and the carrion vulture,
All Commentaries on Leviticus 11:18 Go To Leviticus 11

George Leo Haydock

AD 1849
Bittern, onocrotalum. See ver. 17. Protestant version has "pelican and the gier-eagle "for porphyrion. (Haydock) Its beak and long legs are red. (Pliny, x. 46.) Bo chart understands the vulture, and the Samaritan version the pelican; both of which are remarkable for the care they take of their young. Réme may be derived from rém, "mercy."
