"A goat is a goat, is a goat, is a goat" except if it is in the Bible where a goat may be a symbol.
In our article on the Turtle dove goddess a She goat mentioned in Genesis 15:9 "a she goat[1] of three years old" is a symbol of something more than a female goat. We find it is spelled עֵז which is identical to numerous Hebrew words with different Strong's numbers like 05794 'az (זע) strong; 05795 'ez (זע) she goat; 05796 'ez (זע)Aramaic, she goat; 05797 'oz (זע) strength. That same letter combination is found in many Hebrew words and names, denoting strength while the goat is merely a symbol of that strength.
The idea of boiling a kid goat in its mothers milk may have nothing to do with Milk or meat.
Goats and Sheep are often just representations of ideas, characteristics and traits.
Even the fat of a goat may represent the benefit of a sacrifice.
Leviticus 7:23 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Ye shall eat no manner of fat[2], of ox, or of sheep, or of goat.
