Vulture
 
  1. Heb. da'ah Le 11:14 In the parallel passage De 14:13
     the Hebrew word used is _ra'ah_, rendered "glede;" LXX., "gups;"
     Vulg., "milvus." A species of ravenous bird, distinguished for
     its rapid flight. "When used without the epithet 'red,' the name
     is commonly confined to the black kite. The habits of the bird
     bear out the allusion in Isa 34:15 for it is, excepting
     during the winter three months, so numerous everywhere in
     Palestine as to be almost gregarious."

  2. In Job 28:7 the Heb. 'ayyah is thus rendered. The word denotes
     a clamorous and a keen-sighted bird of prey. In Le 11:14
     De 14:13 it is rendered "kite" (q.v.).
