  Sparrow
     Mentioned among the offerings made by the very poor. Two
     sparrows were sold for a farthing (Matt. 10:29), and five for
     two farthings (Luke 12:6). The Hebrew word thus rendered is
     _tsippor_, which properly denotes the whole family of small
     birds which feed on grain (Lev. 14:4; Ps. 84:3; 102:7). The
     Greek word of the New Testament is _strouthion_ (Matt.
     10:29-31), which is thus correctly rendered.
