901

Strong’s #8163, sa’iyr. Hairy one, he-goat, satyr. The elders in the 2nd century BC translated this word as used in Isaiah 34:14 in the LXX as ONOCENTAUROS, a half-man, half-donkey creature. This is related to the word Centaur, the half-man half-horse creature. The Azazel (Scapegoat) was to be a sa’iyr (hairy one) of the female goats in the Atonement rite in Leviticus 16.
