International Standard Bible Encyclopedia BEETLEbe'-t'-l (the Revised Version (British and American) CRICKET; chargol; See LOCUST): This name occurs only in Leviticus 11:22 as one of four winged Jumping insects (sherets ha-`oph) which may be eaten. It certainly is not a beetle and is probably not a cricket. Probably all four are names of locusts, of which more than 30 species have been described from Syria and Palestine, and for which there are at least 8 Arabic names in use, though with little distinction of species.
