A dairy product forming a basic part of the diet. The three occurrences of cheese in English translations reflect three different Hebrew expressions. Job 10:10 refers to cheese; 1 Samuel 17:18 speaks literally of a “slice of milk,” and 2 Samuel 17:29 uses a word usually interpreted as meaning, “curds of the herd.”
