          dromedarius]

 Dromedary
    (Isa. 60:6), an African or Arabian species of camel having only
    one hump, while the Bactrian camel has two. It is distinguished
    from the camel only as a trained saddle-horse is distinguished
    from a cart-horse. It is remarkable for its speed (Jer. 2:23).
    Camels are frequently spoken of in partriarchal times (Gen.
    12:16; 24:10; 30:43; 31:17, etc.). They were used for carrying
    burdens (Gen. 37:25; Judg. 6:5), and for riding (Gen. 24:64).
    The hair of the camel falls off of itself in spring, and is
    woven into coarse cloths and garments (Matt. 3:4). (See CAMEL.)
