VULTURE . 1 . dâ’âh , Leviticus 11:14 , dayyâh or dayyôth , Deuteronomy 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.
