Frog.


This well-known reptile is very numerous in Palestine. It is only referred to in the O.T. in connection with the second of the plagues in Egypt. Ex. 8: 2-14; Ps. 78: 45; Ps. 105: 30. In the N.T. three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouths of the dragon, the beast, and the false prophet. Rev. 16: 13. Frogs are remarkable for grovelling in the mire, with great noise and activity in the night.
