Oráculo contra a Besta do Sul. Através da terra de aflição e de angústia, de onde vem a leoa e o leão, o basilisco, a áspide e a serpente voadora, levam às costas de jumentinhos as suas riquezas, e sobre as corcovas de camelos os seus tesouros, a um povo que de nada lhes aproveitará.
Rashi on Isaiah
The burden of the beasts of the southland The burdens on their beasts on the way to the southland (Jonathan), for Egypt is in the south of Eretz Israel, and this is the insult and the derision that they would insult them: See these people, whose burdens of money are laden on their beasts to transport bribes to Egypt for nothing, and they imperil themselves in the deserts, in a land of trouble and anguish, etc.

Rashi on Isaiah
viper It is a species of deadly snakes, and there are only two of them in the world, a male and a female, which reproduce after seventy years, (i.e. its gestation period is seventy years) (Bechoroth 8a). The flying serpent, too, is a species of snake, not that it has wings with which to fly, but it jumps and springs long distances and throws a flame from its mouth.
