Coney	Notes Symbols Vocabulary	Art Questions Answers
The coney is another unclean animal that the Hebrews did not eat. When Adam named the coney he must have seen the coney take a treasure into his den, then return to the opening to defend it with bared teeth. His name means 'hide the treasure' ^{[v 1]} but it also means 'mystery of the biting teeth' ^{[v 2]}. The coney is a symbol of a teacher who hides the Gospel.
