Sneeze

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia · James Orr and contributors

snez (zorer, Pho`el-form zarar): "The child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes" (2Ki 4:35). "Sneezing," better "snorting," is found in the description of Leviathan (the crocodile): "His sneezings (`atsishah) flash forth light, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning" (Job 41:18 (Hebrew 10)).
