Heifer:
(1 Samuel 6:7-12; Job 21:10; Isaiah 7:21). The heifer or young cow was not commonly used for ploughing, but only for treading out the corn (Hosea 10:11 but see Judges 14:18). When it ran about without any headstall (Deuteronomy 21:4) hence the expression an "unbroken heifer," (Hosea 4:16). Authorized Version "backsliding" to which Israel is compared.

Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
