[10] : Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary

halt
   lame on the feet gen. 32:31; ps. 38:17. to "halt between two
   opinions" 1 kings 18:21 is supposed by some to be an
   expression used in "allusion to birds, which hop from spray to
   spray, forwards and backwards." the lxx. render the expression
   "how long go ye lame on both knees?" the hebrew verb rendered
   "halt" is used of the irregular dance "leaped upon" around the
   altar ver. 26. it indicates a lame, uncertain gait, going now
   in one direction, now in another, in the frenzy of wild leaping.
