Sometimes this is spoken of asbeing old enough for riding upon, for carrying burdens, and for tilling the ground.—4. Pere (A. V. wild ass) = a species of wild ass (Gen. xvi. 12,A. V. wild man, literally wild-ass man ; Ps.civ. 11; Job vi. 5, xi. 12, xxiv. 5, xxxix. 5, firstclause; Hos. viii. 9; Jer. ii. 24, xiv. 6; Is. xxxii.14). Hosea compared Israel to a wild ass of thedesert,—5. ^Arod (A. V. wild ass ) occurs only inthe latter clause of Job xxxix. 5 ; but in what respectit differs from the Pere (mentioned in the former 76 ass clause ; see above) is uncertain.
