The word arbeh , Locust , is derived from ravah , to multiply , be numerous , etc. , because they are more prolific than any other insect , and because of the immense swarms of them by which different countries , especially the East , are infested. The locust , in entomology , belongs to a genus of insects known among naturalists by the name of Grylli; which includes three species , crickets , grasshoppers , and locusts. The common great brown locust is about three inches in length; has two antennae about an inch long , and two pair of wings. The head and horns are brown; the mouth and inside of the larger legs bluish; the upper side of the body and upper wings brown , the former spotted with black , and the latter with dusky spots. The back is defended by a shield of a greenish hue . the under wings are of a light brown , tinctured with green , and nearly transparent. It has a large open mouth , in the two jaws of which it has four teeth , which tra#### Verse each other like scissors , being calculated , from their mechanism , to gripe or cut. The general appearance of the insect is that of the grasshopper. The Egyptians had gods in whom they trusted to deliver them from these terrible invaders; but by this judgment they were taught that it was impossible to stand before Moses , the servant of Jehovah
