**The whole BDB entry:** n.\[m.\] a clean animal, 𝔊 πύγαργος cf. 𝔙; hence AV RV \& most pygarg, a kind of antelope or gazelle, cf. Di Lv 11:2 f.; perhaps rather mountain-goat, HomNS 391 cf. Ethiopic Vrs.; only Dt 14:5—(Hom l.c. der. from √ דושׁ with kindred meaning of spring, leap \& comp. Assyrian daššu; so already DlS i. 54).

<!-- .note -->
