See commentary on Deuteronomy 14:11-20.


Deuteronomy 14:17

_ _ gier eagle — The Hebrew word Rachemah is manifestly identical with Rachamah, the name which the Arabs give to the common vulture of Western Asia and Egypt (Neophron percnopterus). [See on Leviticus 11:18].

_ _ cormorant — rather, the plungeon; a seafowl. [See on Leviticus 11:17].

Matthew Henry's Commentary
