Peacocks

Smith’s Bible Dictionary · William Smith, F. N. Peloubet, M. A. Peloubet

(Heb. tuccyyim). Among the natural products which Solomon’s fleet brought home to Jerusalem, mention is made of "peacocks," (1 Kings 10:22; 2 Chronicles 9:21) which is probably the correct translation. The Hebrew word may be traced to the Talmud or Malabaric togei , "peacock."
