Og
[Og] – long-necked or bread baked in ashes
The giant king of Bashan. This man of huge stature, the last of the Rephaim, was slain at Edrei. The only big things of any note about this massive man, whose conquests lingered long in the imagination of the people (Ps. 135:11; Ps. 136:20), were his big body and his big bed (Num. 21:33; Num. 32:33; Deut. 3:1-13).
