Brown–Driver–Briggs 1906

גֵּרָה²: n.f. cud tree →

The whole BDB entry

n.f. cud (Arabic جِرَّةٌ, so called from sound of rumination?)—גֵּרָה Lv 11:3 + 10 times—cud, only in legislation of clean and unclean animals, and almost always c. (ֵי, ַת, ָה) מַעֲלֵה Lv 11:3, 4(×2), 5, 6, 26 (P) Dt 14:6, 7(×2); ג׳ יִגָּ֑ר (cf. גרר Niph.) Lv 11:7; Dt 14:8 has גֵּרָה without vb., but read there as Lv 11:7 (so Sam. 𝔊 Di).

Why these entries: BDB: headword, part of speech agrees, 9 of its verses cited, 1 words shared with the glosses, lists its Strong's number (4 candidates); OSHB: headword, part of speech agrees, 1 words shared with the BDB entry, 1 with the glosses (3 candidates)
