Mouse. Tristram found 23 species of mice in Palestine. In Leviticus 11:29, and Isaiah 66:17 this word is doubtless used generically, including as unclean even the larger rat, jerboa, dormouse, and sand-rat. They made great havoc in the fields of the Philistines after that people had taken the ark of the Lord. 1 Samuel 6:4-5.
