snēz ( זורר , zōrēr , Pō‛ēl - form זרר , zārar ): "The child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes" ( 2 Kings 4:35 ). "Sneezing," better "snorting," is found in the description of Leviathan (the crocodile): "His sneezings (עטישׁה , ‛ăṭı̄shāh ) flash forth light, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning" (Job 41:18 (Hebrew 10)).
