I have a question concerning why the KJV uses the word “cockatrice” in Isa. 11:8. 14:29; 59:5; Jer. 8:17.
Wikipedia: A cockatrice is a mythical beast, essentially a two-legged dragon or serpent-like creature with a cock's head.
Other Bible translations use the word “adder” or “viper”.
I would appreciate any information that you might be able to give me.
