Bible Dictionary · B
Bay
Denotes the estuary of the Dead Sea at the mouth of the Jordan (Josh 15:5; Josh 18:19), also the southern extremity of the same sea (Josh 15:2). The same Hebrew word is rendered “tongue” in Isa 11:15, where it is used with reference to the forked mouths of the Nile.
Bay in Zech 6:3, Zech 6:7 denotes the colour of horses, but the original Hebrew means strong, and is here used rather to describe the horses as fleet or spirited.
From Easton’s Bible Dictionary (1897), by Matthew George Easton.
