Isaiah 34:15

The great owl; whether this or what other creature is meant by this Hebrew word, the learned reader may find largely discoursed in my Latin Synopsis upon this place; for others, it may suffice to know, what all agree in, that, whether it be a bird or a serpent, it is a creature that lives in desert places. Make her nest, and lay, and hatch, and gather under her shadow, as fearing no disturbance from any men.
