הִפְשִׁיט אֶת טְלָפָיו, גִּילָּה אֶת טְלָפָיו

ביטוי (אנגלית)

To strip his hooves, to reveal his hooves

הגדרה (אנגלית)

By metaphor: to feign piety. To strive to appear righteous. Or: to reveal one’s rough true face (‘telaf’ literally means hoof, the horny part at the tips of the legs of animals. Originally: since a fit beast is required to have both a split hoof and a cloven foot, the pig appears as fit when lying down and its hooves are visible to the eye).

("What is this pig, in the hour that he lies down he spreads his fangs, as if saying that I am pure, so does this wicked kingdom usurp and five are visible as if it were offering the stage" - Beginning of Rava, 1)
