On the Wings of an Eagle ✡ "It Grows Wings And Flies Away" - Israel365

You see it, then it is gone; It grows wings and flies away, Like an eagle, heavenward Proverbs 23:5 (The Israel Bible™) הֲתָעִיף עֵינֶיךָ בּוֹ וְאֵינֶנּוּ כִּי עָשֹׂה יַעֲשֶׂה־לּוֹ כְנָפַיִם כְּנֶשֶׁר יָעוּף הַשָּׁמָיִם Hear the verse in Hebrew ha-ta-EEF ay-NE-kha BO v’-ay-NE-nu KEE a-SOH ya-a-seh LO kh’-na-FA-yim k’-NE-sher ya-UF ha-sha-MA-yim On the Wings of an Eagle The eagle is a prominent bird in the Bible and in Jewish thought. The eagle is able to fly higher than most other birds.

Most other types of birds carry their young from their legs, dangling beneath them. Alternatively, eagles who fly higher than other birds, carry their young on their backs. Since the eagle flies higher than other birds, it fears no other flying predators.
