# abomasum

noun

«abomasum» in the English dictionary: in Jewish tradition — its meanings, how the lessons use it, and examples, each with its tree on Mova.

## In Jewish tradition

In Sefer Yetzirah it is one of the twelve organs of the body, matched with the letter Tzadi, Aquarius and the month Shevat.

**Interpretation.** The text matches twelve "leaders" in the body to twelve letters, months and signs. Commentators found the organ names hard to identify.

### Meaning

The fourth stomach of an animal such as a cow or sheep that chews the cud. [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/judaism/A/abomasum/#m1)

### Examples

- He made the letter Tzadi reign, and bound to it a crown, and formed with it Aquarius in the World, and Shevat in the Year, and the abomasum in the Person. (Sefer Yetzirah, Sefaria community translation) [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/judaism/A/abomasum/#x1)
- And these are the Twelve Leaders in the Person: two hands, two legs, two kidneys, spleen, liver, gall, rumen, abomasum, craw. \[note 2: Identification of the latter four terms is very strange.
