kes´i-ta, ke-sē´ta (קשׂיטה, ḳesīṭāh ; Genesis 33:19, R.V., marg., a Hebrew word, rendered, KJV, pl. “pieces of money,” marg., “lambs;” Joshua 24:32, “pieces of silver;” Job 42:11, “piece of money”):

The kesitah was probably a piece of money of a particular weight, cast in the form of a lamb. The monuments of Egypt show that such weights were used.
