It is used in the context of describing the vulnerability and innocence of young birds, often symbolizing purity and the need for protection.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, birds were a common part of the natural landscape and held various symbolic meanings. Young birds, or fledglings, were often seen as symbols of innocence and vulnerability. The imagery of birds, including fledglings, is used throughout the Bible to convey messages of care, protection, and divine providence. The practice of bird-keeping and the observation of birds were familiar to the people of biblical times, making such imagery relatable and poignant.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from an unused word<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>young birds<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>young (1), young pigeon (1).<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> <font class="hebrew2">גוֺזָל</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>noun masculine</b></font><sup>Deuteronomy 32:11</sup> <font size="+1"><b>young of birds</b></font> (Syriac <img src="/bdbgif/bdb016002.gif"> compare Arabic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb016003.gif">) — <font class="hebrew2">וְתֹר וְגוֺזָָֽל׃</font> <a href="/interlinear/genesis/15-2.htm">Genesis 15:2</a> pigeon;
