Thoughts And Things Of The Bible -- Boar
The word "boar" occurs only in Ps. 80:13. The same Hebrew
word is elsewhere rendered "swine" (Lev. 11:7; Deut. 14:8;
Prov. 11:22; Isa. 65:4; 66:3, 17). The Hebrews abhorred swine's flesh,
and accordingly none of these animals were reared, except in the
district beyond the Sea of Galilee. In the psalm quoted above, the
powers that destroyed the Jewish nation are compared to wild boars and
wild beasts of the field.
