* a flea.
{Parosh,} (in Arabic {borghooth,} Syriac, {poorthano,}) the
well known little contemptible and troublesome insect, the
flea, seems to be so called from its agility in leaping and
skipping, from {para,} "free," and {raash,} "to leap, bound."
David, by comparing himself to this insect, seems to import,
that while it would cost Saul much pains to catch him, he
would obtain but very little advantage from it.
* a partridge.
{Korai} certainly denotes the partridge, which is called in
Arabic, {kir(8461).} It seems to be so called from the cry or
{cur} which it utters when calling its young.
