It is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote various types of birds, often in contexts that highlight their characteristics, such as their ability to fly or their role in the ecosystem. The term can be used both literally and metaphorically.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, birds were a common part of daily life and held various symbolic meanings. They were often seen as messengers or symbols of freedom due to their ability to soar through the skies. Birds were also used in sacrificial rituals, as seen in the purification rites described in Leviticus. The presence of birds in biblical texts often reflects the agrarian lifestyle of the Israelites, where observing nature was integral to understanding God's creation.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from the same as <a href="/hebrew/6833.htm">tsippor</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"bird," father of Balak<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Zippor (7).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> II. <font class="hebrew2">צִמּוֺר</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>father of Balak, king of Moab</b></font> (<em>bird</em>; perhaps specifically <em>sparrow</em>, compare Gray<sup>Prop.
