What are Conies in the Bible?
Cony, also spelled Coney, any of certain unrelated animals,
including two mammals and two fishes. ... The name cony was once
applied to the rabbit and is still sometimes used in the fur
business to indicate rabbit fur. The cony of the Old World and
of the Bible is an unrelated mammal, the hyrax (q.v.). Agelbert
NOTE: qv in British. abbreviation for denoting a cross reference

[center]Hyrax Facts: Animals Of Africa - It is perhaps
surprising due to their small size and rodent-like appearance,
but hyraxes are related to 🐘 elephants 🧐.

/>[/center]
Where are hyraxes found?
Hyraxes are very adaptable. In East Africa, they are found at
sea level and at altitudes of more than 4,000 meters (14,000
feet). Their habitats range from dry savanna to dense rainforest
to cold Afro-alpine moorland.
Hyraxes are small animals without tails. They resemble guinea
pigs. The animals grow to 28 inches in length and have a maximum
weight of 11 pounds. The hyrax’s skin is covered with thick fur
and has varied coloration depending on the species. The
yellow-spotted rock hyrax’s fur is yellowish brown and has a
white patch just above its eyes. The rock hyrax is greyish-brown
in color and has no distinct marks on its face.
The hyrax has several physical attributes that differentiate it
from rodents and link it to elephants and manatees. The hyrax’s
feet have rubber-like moist soles which are crucial in climbing.
Hyraxes have three toes on the hind feet and four toes on the
front feet. The toes have nails (with the exception of the hind
foot’s inner toe which has a claw used for scratching itches)
which resemble hoofs unlike the usual long, claw-like nails
found in rodents. The dental characteristics of the hyrax are
also close to that of elephants with elongated incisors which
resemble tusks found in manatees and elephants. These tusk-like
teeth are more prominent in male hyraxes than in females.

[font=times new roman]Explanatory note in regard to Paradise
from the Hebrew-Greek Study Bible (compiled and edited by Spiros
Zodhiates, Th.D.):[/font]
[center]What is this place called Paradise? :-\[/center]
The word paradeisos, "paradise"," originally comes from the
ancient Iranian, pairidaēza, and means "a garden with a
wall." The Septugint translation of the Hebrew word in Genesis
2:8 is paradeisos. In the New Testament the word occurs only
three times:II Corinthians 12:4; Luke 23:43; Revelation 2:7.
It was indicated as a place where spirits go immediately after
death, which is also the place that Christ was going to go once
His spirit was separated from his body. The continuation of the
existence of the personality is also clearly intimated in the
story of the rich man and Lazarus in Luke 16:19-31.
[font=times new roman]Luke 16:19-31
There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and
fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:
And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at
his gate, full of sores,
And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich
man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.
And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by
the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was
buried;
And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth
Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and
send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water,
and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime
receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things:
but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.
And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf
fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot;
neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.
Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest
send him to my father's house:
For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest
they also come into this place of torment.
Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let
them hear them.
And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from
the dead, they will repent.
And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets,
neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the
dead.[/font]
The paradise of II Corinthians 12:4 is the same as that spoken
of by Christ in Luke 23:24. In Revelation 2:7 the word is spoken
pf in an eschatological[color=purple]* sense as being a gift to
be given to the one who overcomes. It is evidently the place
where the disembodied personalities as spirits or souls of the
believers go immediately at death to be with Christ.[/color]
* eschatology [es-k uh- tol- uh-jee]
NOUN (THEOLOGY.)
1. any system of doctrines concerning last, or final, matters,
as death, the Judgment, the future state, etc.
2. the branch of theology dealing with such matters.
II Corinthians 12:4 How that he was caught up into paradise, and
heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to
utter.
Luke 23:43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee,
Today shalt thou be with me in paradise.
Revelation 2:7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit
saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to
eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise
of God.

beast before thee.
Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me by
my right hand. Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and
afterward receive me to glory. Whom have I in heaven but thee?
and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee.
My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my

[quote][font=times new roman]For we are saved by hope: but hope
that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet
hope for? But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with
patience wait for it.
Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know
not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself
maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be
uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the
mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the
saints according to the will of God.

I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my

If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me:
But verily God hath heard me; he hath attended to the voice of
