of his ox
Domesticated cattle, specifically an ox or bull; the term refers primarily to the male of the species (Bos taurus), often as a beast of burden, used for plowing or as sacrificial animals. The word can denote a herd animal in general, sometimes used generically for cattle regardless of sex, but primarily indicates a mature male ox. In some legal and narrative contexts, it appears as a representative animal of agricultural life and social economy, especially in discussions of restitution, property, or sacrificial ritual.
