Unicorns In The Bible?

Do you believe UNICORNS, the one-horned mythical creatures, really existed?

 

The word UNICORN was mentioned in the Old King James Version of the Bible. I’ve listed the scriptures at the end of this blog post. From my research, the word that was translated into UNICORN was re’em (the Hebrew word). Re’em means aurochs, which is the ancestor of domestic cattle.

 

It appears that the word was mistranslated in the Old King James Version. Other versions of the Bible use the word wild ox instead of unicorn.

 

What do you think? Is it possible that unicorns really existed after all? Do you think these wild, mythical creatures really roved on this earth?
