Comments: Bruchus brachialis
Bruchus — Though it occurs once (Leviticus 11:22) as an equivalent for Hebrew, 'ârbéh - Strongs: H697 (probably Locusta migratoria), the word bruchus is the regular interpretation for יֶלֶק yéléq - Strongs: H3218, "licker". The biblical bruchus may be fairly identified with the beetle, or some insect akin to it. Anyway, the yéléq of Jer. 51:14, 27, should have been rendered in the same manner as everywhere else.
Verses:
- Leviticus 11:22
- Psalms 105:34
- Joel 1:4
- Joel 2:25
- Nahum 3:15
- Nahum 3:16
