     * a little cloud.
       {Kekaph ish,} "like the hollow of a man's hand;" in the form
       of a hand bent, the concave side downmost.  Mr. Bruce mentions
       a similar cloud in Abyssinia, as attending the inundation of
       the Nile.  "Every morning, about nine, a small cloud, not
       above four feet broad, appears in the east, whirling violently
       round, as if upon an axis; but arrived near the zenith, it
       first abates its motion, then loses its form, and extends
       itself greatly, and seems to call up vapours from all opposite
       quarters.  These clouds having attained nearly the same
       height, rush against each other with great violence, and put
       me always in mind of Elijah foretelling rain on Mount Carmel."
