Michael Heiser — Etymology Of Tachash (Numbers 4:5–6)
Channel: Houseform Apologetics
Date: 2017-12-20

Dr. Michael Heiser discusses the etymology of “tachash”—taken from Numbers 4:5–6. Some Bible versions (ASV, NASB, MEV, etc.) translate the unusual Hebrew word “tachash” here as porpoise skins. The passage explains the way the ark of the testimony was covered, but does “tachash” really mean porpoise skins? Can we clarify on this vague Hebrew word?
