Peacocks
VIEW:36 DATA:01-04-2020
PEACOCKS.1. tûkkîyyîm, 1Ki_10:22, 2Ch_9:21. The word may he from the Tamil tokei meaning peacock, but from the fact that the LXX [Note: Septuagint.] has in 1Ki_10:22 carved stones, and that in 2Ch_9:21 the word is omitted, the tr. [Note: translate or translation.] is doubtful. The peacock (Pavo cristatus) is a native of India. 2. rĕnânîm, AV [Note: Authorized Version.] tr. [Note: translate or translation.] in Job_39:13 peacock. See Ostrich.

tukkiyim. 1Ki_10:22; 2Ch_9:21; in Job_39:13 for "peacocks" translated "ostrich hen". (See OSTRICH.) Related to Tamil togei "peacock," Sanskrit, sikhin "crested"; from its singular crown of upright divergent shafts, each tipped with a disc; Pavo cristatus (Linnaeus). Its ocellated train is not the tail, which is short, but the feathers of the loins, rump, and tail coverts, which it can at will erect into a circular spread disc. The peacock was unknown to the Assyrians, judging from the monuments; also to the Egyptians; but is mentioned in Aristophanes (Birds, 484), 426 B.C. Probably Solomon first brought it by his Tarshish ships to the West from the East.

Peacocks. (Hebrew, tuccyyim). Among the natural products, which Solomon's fleet brought home to Jerusalem, mention is made of "peacocks," 1Ki_10:22; 2Ch_9:21, which is probably the correct translation. The Hebrew word may be traced to the Talmud or Malabaric togei, "peacock."
