 * a great famine.
 # 28,29; 7:4; 25:3; 1Ki 18:2; Jer 14:13-15,18; 32:24; 52:6|
 * an ass's head.
   If the pieces of silver were {drachms,} the whole would amount
   to about 2(9c2e) 9s.; which was a great price for so mean a part
   of this unclean animal.
 
 # Eze 4:13-16|
 * dove's dung.
   This probably denotes, as Bochart, Scheuchzer, and others
   suppose, a kind of {pulse,} or {vetches,} which the Arabs
   still call pigeon's dung.  "They never," says Dr. Shaw,
   (Travels, p. 140), "constitute a dish by themselves, but are
   strewed singly as a garnish over {cuscasowe, pillowe,} and
   other dishes.  They are besides in the greatest repute after
   they are parched in pans and ovens; then assuming the name
   {leblebby;}"  and he thinks they were so called from being
   pointed at one end, and acquiring an ash colour in parching.
