▶ Stork / 학
chasidah. There are three particulars mentioned in scripture respecting this bird.
1. It makes its nest in the fir trees. Ps. 104:17. This agrees with the stork; it is a large bird, and selects a tree that is high and yet one that will well support its nest.
(시104:17 새들이 그 속에 깃을 들임이여 학은 잣나무로 집을 삼는도다
2. It is represented as in the heaven. Jer. 8:7. The stork flies very high, especially when migrating.
(렘08:07 공중의 학은 그 정한 시기를 알고 반구와 제비와 두루미는 그 올 때를 지키거늘 내 백성은 여호와의 규례를 알지 못하도다 하셨다하라
3. It has powerful wings. Zech. 5:9. This also agrees with the stork, its wings extending to more than six feet. The same Hebrew word occurs in Job 39:13; see margin.
(슥05:09 내가 또 눈을 들어 본즉 두 여인이 나왔는데 학의 날개 같은 날개가 있고 그 날개에 바람이 있더라 그들이 그 에바를 천지 사이에 들었기로
(욥39:13 타조는 즐거이 그 날개를 친다마는 그 깃과 털이 인자를 베푸느냐
The word chasidah is kindred to the word translated 'merciful,' and the bird is remarkable for its tender care, not only of its young, but of the aged. In the Levitical list it is classed among the unclean birds. Lev. 11:19; Deut. 14:18. This we might expect, as it feeds upon mice, snakes, and other reptiles, etc.
(레11:19 학과 황새 종류와 대승과 박쥐니라 19 And the stork, the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
(신14:18 학과 황새 종류와 대승과 박쥐며
Both the black stork (ciconia nigra), and the white stork (c. alba) are numerous in Palestine. The former associate together in secluded and marshy districts, often in flocks. White storks prefer the habitations of man, where they roam about the streets, devouring the offal. They are much respected, and it would fare ill with any one who would injure them. In some places they are of much value on account of their attacks upon the serpents.
