However, the concept of a fox is captured in the Greek word ἀλώπηξ (alōpēx), Strong's Greek Number 258, which is used in the New Testament to describe foxes, such as in Luke 13:32 where Jesus refers to Herod as "that fox." Usage: The word "shalletet" is used in the context of describing a female fox. It is a rare term in the Hebrew Bible and is not frequently encountered in the text. Context: The term "shalletet" appears in the Hebrew Bible as a descriptor for a female fox. Foxes are often symbolic in biblical literature, representing cunning, craftiness, and sometimes destruction. The use of "shalletet" specifically highlights the gender of the animal, which may carry additional connotations of slyness or subtlety. In biblical times, foxes were known to inhabit the regions of Israel and were often seen as nuisances to agriculture, as they could destroy vineyards and crops. The mention of a vixen in the biblical text may serve to emphasize the stealthy and elusive nature of the creature, drawing a parallel to human behavior that is similarly cunning or deceptive.
