  Beast
     This word is used of flocks or herds of grazing animals (Ex.
     22:5; Num. 20:4, 8, 11; Ps. 78:48); of beasts of burden (Gen.
     45:17); of eatable beasts (Prov. 9:2); and of swift beasts or
     dromedaries (Isa. 60:6). In the New Testament it is used of a
     domestic animal as property (Rev. 18:13); as used for food (1
     Cor. 15:39), for service (Luke 10:34; Acts 23:24), and for
     sacrifice (Acts 7:42).
     
       When used in contradistinction to man (Ps. 36:6), it denotes a
     brute creature generally, and when in contradistinction to
     creeping things (Lev. 11:2-7; 27:26), a four-footed animal.
     
       The Mosaic law required that beasts of labour should have rest
     on the Sabbath (Ex. 20:10; 23:12), and in the Sabbatical year
     all cattle were allowed to roam about freely, and eat whatever
     grew in the fields (Ex. 23:11; Lev. 25:7). No animal could be
     castrated (Lev. 22:24). Animals of different kinds were to be
     always kept separate (Lev. 19:19; Deut. 22:10). Oxen when used
     in threshing were not to be prevented from eating what was
     within their reach (Deut. 25:4; 1 Cor.9:9).
     
       This word is used figuratively of an infuriated multitude (1
     Cor. 15:32; Acts 19:29; comp. Ps. 22:12, 16; Eccl. 3:18; Isa.
     11:6-8), and of wicked men (2 Pet. 2:12). The four beasts of
     Daniel 7:3, 17, 23 represent four kingdoms or kings.

        etc. [Obs.] --Chaucer.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     2. Any four-footed animal, that may be used for labor, food,
        or sport; as, a beast of burden.

                                                    10.
        [1913 Webster]

                                                    --W. C.
                                                    Fields.
        [1913 Webster]

     5. A game at cards similar to loo. [Obs.] --Wright.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     6. A penalty at beast, omber, etc. Hence: To be beasted, to
        be beaten at beast, omber, etc.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     Beast royal, the lion. [Obs.] --Chaucer.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     Syn: Beast, Brute.
  
     Usage: When we use these words in a figurative sense, as
            applicable to human beings, we think of beasts as mere
            animals governed by animal appetite; and of brutes as
            being destitute of reason or moral feeling, and
            governed by unrestrained passion. Hence we speak of
            beastly appetites; beastly indulgences, etc.; and of
            brutal manners; brutal inhumanity; brutal ferocity.
            So, also, we say of a drunkard, that he first made
            himself a beast, and then treated his family like a
            brute.
