(אִ ), properly breathing-place, or the member by which we breathe (Numbers 11:20); also in the dual (אִפִּיַם ), the two nostrils. The same word likewise signifies anger (Proverbs 22:24), as often shown in the breathing; and the face (Genesis 3:19), so called from its most prominent feature; and in 1 Samuel 1:5 for two persons; a portion for two faces, i.e. a double portion (see Gesenius, s.v.). (See NOSTRIL).
