Jeremiah 1, 17; Eze 34:20), a sheep or goat from a flock generally, variously rendered (“cattle,” “sheep,” “goat,” “ewe”); (kibsah’) or (kabsah’, fem., so called from being fit for coupling), a “ewe-lamb,” i.e., from one to three years old (Gen 21:28-30; Lev 14:10; Num 6:14; 2Sa 12:3-4; 2Sa 12:6); (aloth’, milk-giving fem. plur.), milch (“[ewes] with young,” Psa 78:71; Isa 40:11).

Ewe
u (, rahel, , ul, , seh, a female sheep): Rahel (compare pr. note Rachel, and Arabic rahala, to migrate) is the ordinary Hebrew word for ewe, but is translated sheep, though with clear indication of sex in context, in Isa 53:7 and Son 6:6 (the Revised Version (British and American) ewes). Aloth, participle of ul, to suckle (compare Arabic ghal) is found in Psa 78:71 and Isa 40:11 (the King James Version are with young, the English Revised Version that give suck, the American Standard Revised Version have their young). In 1Sa 6:7, 1Sa 6:10 occurs paroth aloth, milch kine. Seh, in Lev 22:28, while translated ewe, might from the context be ewe or shegoat and indeed seems to be used here as a term applying equally to either, being used elsewhere for one of a flock of sheep or goats.
