question:  How many times, if any, are ostriches mentioned in the Bible?

 

answer:  Twice

 

“The wings of the ostrich wave proudly, but are her wings and pinions like the kindly stork’s?  For she leaves her eggs on the ground, and warms them in the dust; she forgets that a foot may crush them, or that a wild beast may break them. She treats her young harshly, as though they were not hers; her labor is in vain, without concern, because God deprived her of wisdom, and did not endow her with understanding. When she lifts herself on high, she scorns the horse and its rider” (Job 39:13-18).

 

“The daughter of my people is cruel, like ostriches in the wilderness” (Lamentations 4:3b).
