A bird forbidden as food
- Leviticus 11:17
And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
- Deuteronomy 14:17
And the pelican, and the gier eagle, and the cormorant,
- Isaiah 34:11
But the cormorant and the bittern shall possess it; the owl also and the raven shall dwell in it: and he shall stretch out upon it the line of confusion, and the stones of emptiness.
- Zephaniah 2:14
And flocks shall lie down in the midst of her, all the beasts of the nations: both the cormorant and the bittern shall lodge in the upper lintels of it; their voice shall sing in the windows; desolation shall be in the thresholds: for he shall uncover the cedar work.
