The tabernacle was covered with badgers '
skins ;
the shoes of women were also made of them (
Ezek .
16 :
10 ).
Our translators seem to have been misled by the similarity in sound of the Hebrew _tachash_ and the Latin _taxus_ , "
a badger ."
The revisers have correctly substituted "
seal skins ."
The Arabs of the Sinaitic peninsula apply the name _tucash_ to the seals and dugongs which are common in the Red Sea ,
and the skins of which are largely used as leather and for sandals .
Though the badger is common in Palestine ,
and might occur in the wilderness ,
its small hide would have been useless as a tent covering .
The dugong ,
very plentiful in the shallow waters on the shores of the Red Sea ,
is a marine animal from 12 to 30 feet long ,
something between a whale and a seal ,
never leaving the water ,
but very easily caught .
It grazes on seaweed ,
and is known by naturalists as Halicore tabernaculi .
