SYNONYMS
(C) Dr Hendel, Nov-02


RASHIS COVERED: Gn30-33a;Gn30-02a Tacath=REPLACE;ANH B=PROVE

The root Tauv-Chet-Tauv can mean
- REPLACE
- BOTTOM
- UNDERNEATH
- BECAUSE
- PLACE

Hence Gn30-02 can be interpreted in two ways
- Am I, Jacob, UNDERNEATH God
- Am I, Jacob, a REPLACEMENT of God who can give you children

Because the translation UNDERNEATH is more respectful
Rashi had to clarify that the 2nd meaning, REPLACEMENT, was
intended, Rashi came to this conclusion because of the context
VERSE TEXT OF VERSE WITH t-ch-t TRANSLATED IN CAPS
Gn30-02a Do I (Jacob) REPLACE GOD (Can I decree children)
Gn02-21 God REPLACED the bone with FLESH
Gn55-13 The Natzutz tree will be REPLACED by BEROSH
-------- -------------------------------------------------
Dt28-47 BECAUSE you did not serve God, youll serve enemies
2S19-22 Will Shimi not die BECAUSE of his insults
-------- -------------------------------------------------
Is14-11 UNDERNEATH you will be spread worms
Jb18-16 UNDERNEATH its roots will dry up
-------- -------------------------------------------------
Gn06-16 a BOTTOM, middle and top floor
Ez40-19 ...the BOTTOM gate
-------- -------------------------------------------------
Ex16-29 Every person sit in his PLACE on the Sabbath
Jb34-26 God hit the wicked in their PLACE
-------- -------------------------------------------------
ROOT+PREPOSITION
(C) Dr Hendel, Nov-02

In this list we explore meaning based on ROOT+ PREPOSITION.

The ordinary meaning of Ayin-Nun-Hey is TO ANSWER.

The Hebrew root Ayin-Nun-Hey when followed by the preposition
BETH (in) means TESTIMONY and PROOF (Radack ROOTS).
VERSE TEXT OF VERSE WITH a-n-h b TRANSLATED AS testified
Dt19-18 He TESTIFIED falsely against his brother
Ex20-15 Do not TESTIFY falsely against your friend
Gn30-33 My wages will TESTIFY for/agaist me*1 *2
Is59-12 Our sins TESTIFY against us*2
Hs05-05 The arrogance of the Jews TESTIFIES agaist them *2
COMMENTS
*1 Jacobs suggested deal was to take only sheep that were
- dotted
- flaked
- black
Jacob further offered Laban to remove the ALREADY dotted,
flaked and black sheep (So that Jacob couldnt get the
offspring of these sheep)(Rashi Gn30-32d)

Hence Jacobs wages (dotted,flaked and black) would TESTIFY
against him(that is, they would CLEARLY PROVE his
honesty/dishonesty)--if any sheep were not dotted, not flaked
and not black then they were stolen(Gn30-33a)

*2 Perhaps the translation PROVEN is better than TESTIFIED
- Our sins CLEARLY PROVE how bad we are
- My wages(Dotted,flaked,black) CLEARLY PROVE how honest I am
- Their arrogance CLEARLY PROVES their sinfullness
