 * of the flocks.

 * a burnt sacrifice.
   {Olah,} a burnt offering, from {(836c)ah,} to ascend, because this
   offering ascended, as it were, to God in flame and smoke,
   being wholly consumed; for which reason its is called in the
   Septuagint, [holo kaut▌a,] a whole burnt offering.  This was
   the most important of all the sacrifices; and no part of it
   was eaten either by the priest or the offerer, but the whole
   was offered to God.  It has been sufficiently shown by learned
   men, that almost every nation of the earth, in every age, had
   their burnt offerings, from the persuasion that there was no
   other way to appease the incensed gods; and they even offered
   human sacrifices, because they imagined that life was
   necessary to redeem life, and that the gods would be satisfied
   with nothing less.

 * a male.
