Unicorn

Narrator: Chris Genthree
Listen from:
(one-horned). A fabulous animal pictured as having one horn on its forehead and the body of a horse. The Hebrew word re’em, which is translated “unicorn” (Num. 23:22; 24:822God brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn. (Numbers 23:22)
8God brought him forth out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn: he shall eat up the nations his enemies, and shall break their bones, and pierce them through with his arrows. (Numbers 24:8)
; Deut. 33:1717His glory is like the firstling of his bullock, and his horns are like the horns of unicorns: with them he shall push the people together to the ends of the earth: and they are the ten thousands of Ephraim, and they are the thousands of Manasseh. (Deuteronomy 33:17); Job 39:99Will the unicorn be willing to serve thee, or abide by thy crib? (Job 39:9); Psa. 22:21; 29:621Save me from the lion's mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns. (Psalm 22:21)
6He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn. (Psalm 29:6)
; Isa. 34:77And the unicorns shall come down with them, and the bullocks with the bulls; and their land shall be soaked with blood, and their dust made fat with fatness. (Isaiah 34:7)), does not refer to the one-horned creature of fable, but evidently to a two-horned animal (Deut. 33:1717His glory is like the firstling of his bullock, and his horns are like the horns of unicorns: with them he shall push the people together to the ends of the earth: and they are the ten thousands of Ephraim, and they are the thousands of Manasseh. (Deuteronomy 33:17)), possibly the now nearly extinct wild ox, auroch or urus of naturalists.
