People's Dictionary of the Bible
Lapwing. Occurs only in A. V. of Leviticus 11:19, R. V. Hoopoe, and in the parallel passage of Deuteronomy 14:18, amongst the list of those birds which were forbidden by the law of Moses to be eaten by the Israelites. Probably the hoopoe is intended, a bird about the size of a pigeon.
