In Jesus' illustration of the sheep and the goats at Matthew 25:31-46 the goats represent those who refuse to do good to his brothers. The image is fulfilled by those today who reject the Kingdom message as preached by all of Jehovah's people. Rather than allowing Jesus to make the judgment after the outbreak of the {great tribulation}, some people take it unto themselves to attribute goatlike characteristics to persons who have given them a hard time at the last door. (Though rarely in seriousness.) That last goat said ``Beat it! And don't ba-a-a-a-a-a-ather to come ba-a-ack!''[89] Sometimes the forms goatlike, goatish, goaty, and goatiest are heard. Some persons use the term like some persons in the world say butthead, not a polite term, or jerk, likewise not exactly a compliment. [89] Ba-a-a-a is a sound that is usually attributed to a sheep, but only a shepherd would know the difference.

Curried or in a stew, don't overlook this delectable meat. 0 Recipes » 1 Sub Categories

Often cooked in a hot curry sauce and served with roti, an Indian bread. "The Indian influence on our food," says Jamaican emigre and home cook David Brown of Greenbelt, reflects the Jamaican motto: "Out of many people we are one." Lamb is a substitute.

Goat meat is eaten with enthusiasm in only a few places in the world, and Jamaica is assuredly one of those places. Some credit immigrants from India who search din vain for lamb to prepare their beloved curry. Finding no lambs, they latched onto the next best thing--and curried goat became a Caribbean classic. Most first-timers find goat milder in flavor than lamb and an excellent substitute for lamb in most recipes. Of course, if you can't find goat, you can substitute lamb.

Goat meat has been eaten in many countries for centuries, and is gaining popularity in the U.S. and Europe. Most goat meat comes from kids--goats under 6 months old. Kid meat is as tender and delicate as lamb see Abercrombie's Goat Page.
