St. Jerome, translating from the Hebrew and referring to the Greek, while preparing the (Latin) Vulgate, evidently mistranslated the Hebrew qaran to shine, for qeren horn and went on record with cornuta , horned: Quod cornuta esset facies sua . Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase & Fable calls the translation “a blunder,” explaining that “the Hebrew for this shining may be translated either as `sent forth beams' or as `sent forth horns.
' The derivative forms (qeren, etc.) are all translated with some reference to “horn,” except the dual form, qarnaim, which is translated “rays of light, splendour.”
