 | Fatling | |
(1.) A fatted animal for slaughter (2 Samuel 6:13; Isaiah 11:6; Ezek. 39:18. Comp. Matthew 22:4, where the word used in the original, sitistos, means literally "corn-fed;" i.e., installed, fat).
(2.) Psalm 66:15 (Hebrews meah, meaning "marrowy, " "fat, " a species of sheep).
(3.) 1 Samuel 15:9 (Hebrews mishneh, meaning "the second, " and hence probably "cattle of a second quality, " or lambs of the second birth, i.e., autmnal lambs, and therfore of less value).
