出版者:保罗·伊尔顿 (Paul Ilton),《圣经是我的藏宝图》(1958)。伊尔顿先生在他的书中用一章来描述这件藏品。据称,它是在伯多禄的迦南神庙中发现的(第 63 页),他认为这是“异教非利士人和迦南祭司崇拜蝗虫的证据”(第 61 页)。他提到了一种祭祀仪式,其中供奉金昆虫,可能是为了阻止瘟疫,这在《撒母耳记》第 6 章第 4 和 5 节中有描述;然后他们说:“我们要用什么赎罪祭物来回报他?”他们说:“五个金痔疮像和五只金老鼠,都是照着非利士人首领的数目,因为你们和你们的首领都遭遇同一种灾殃。所以你们要造你们的痔疮像和毁坏地的老鼠像,又要归荣耀给以色列的神。或者他减轻手对你们和你们的神,并你们的地的伤害。”
