פָּרַס to break, only in Kal in the phrase פָּרַס לֶחֶם לְ to break one’s bread to any one; i.e. to distribute it, Isaiah 58:7 and without לֶחֶם Jerem. 16:7. Compare פָּרַשׁ No. 1.

Hiphil

(1) to cleave, to divide. Levit. 11:4, וּפַרְסָה אֵינֶנּוּ מַפְרִיס “but cleaveth not the hoof,” i.e. has not the hoof altogether cloven. Elsewhere

(2) הִפְרִיס פַּרְסָה Levit. 11:3, Leviticus 11:6, Leviticus 11:7, 26 Leviticus 11:26; Deuteronomy 14:7, Deuteronomy 14:8 and without פַּרְסָה is nothing more than to have (pr. to make or produce) a cloven hoof.
