### Brown–Driver–Briggs 1906

דִּישֹׁן: pygarg mountain-goat [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/tanakh/1491/1788/#m2)

**The whole BDB entry:** n.\[m.\] a clean animal, 𝔊 πύγαργος cf. 𝔙; hence AV RV & most pygarg, a kind of antelope or gazelle, cf. Di Lv 11:2 f.; perhaps rather mountain-goat, HomNS 391 cf. Ethiopic Vrs.; only Dt 14:5—(Hom l.c. der. from √ דושׁ with kindred meaning of spring, leap & comp. Assyrian daššu; so already DlS i. 54).

Why these entries: BDB: same consonants, part of speech agrees, 1 of its verses cited, 0 words shared with the glosses, lists its Strong's number (7 candidates); OSHB: same consonants, part of speech agrees, 1 words shared with the BDB entry, 0 with the glosses (6 candidates)
