Ayish, the Bear (constellation name: possibly Ursa Major or a related star group)
This noun designates a constellation, probably the Great Bear (Ursa Major). It appears in Job 9:9 and 38:32, both times in poetic lists of celestial wonders. In Job 38:32, it is paired with 'her children' or 'her train' (עַל־בָּנֶיהָ), possibly referring to the stars of the Little Bear or the Big Dipper's handle. The BDB notes that the vocalization may be עִיֻּשׁ, and compares Syriac cognates. The multilingual glosses transliterate the name or render it 'Bear' ('Osa,' 'Ourse'), reflecting ancient astronomical tradition.
