Cormorant, the plunger, Leviticus 11:17; Deuteronomy 14:17, an unclean bird, like the cormorant—which is a water-bird about the size of a goose. Another Hebrew word, translated "cormorant" in Isaiah 34:11; Zephaniah 2:14, A. V., should rather be translated as it is in the R. V., and in other passages of the A. V., "pelican."
