RASHIS COVERED: Gn32-22a ON THE FACE means UPSET/ANGRY NU16-04a QUESTION Ex01-05a states that PHAROHS DAUGHTER WAS WALKING ON THE NILE But Rashi states that the Hebrew word AYIN-LAMED means NEAR. Thus Rashi translates the verse: PHAROHS DAUGHTER WAS WALKING NEAR THE NILE. Is this the real meaning of AYIN-LAMED? Can other examples be produced. ANSWER The Hebrew word AYIN-LAMED which is usually translated as ON in fact has half a dozen meanings in addition to the special idiomatic meanings it has with other words. Here are some examples: AYIN-LAMED can mean a) ON, b) WITH, c) AT THE TIME OF d) TOWARDS, e) FOR, f) NEAR, g) BESIDES. Furthermore in conjunction with other words it can have idiomatic meaning--for example it can mean a) DEPRESSED, b) THEREFORE or SINCE. | ||

We present verses with the Hebrew word AYIN-LAMED AYIN-LAMED has 7 basic meanings and several idiomatic meanings Previous lists in the LIST004 series have reviewed other meanings of AYIN LAMED as follows VOLUME MEANING OF AYIN LAMED LIST INVOLVED w16n11 ON LIST004a w16n12 LAMED-for LIST004b w16n13 CONCERNING / ACCOUNT OF LIST004c w16n14 BETH-with,time of, by LIST004d w16n15 BESIDES LIST004e w16n16 NEAR LIST004f w16n17 IDIOMS LIST004g A LIST of verses where ON HIS FACE means - DEPRESSED - ANGRY - UPSET There is a controversy whether its primary meaning should be UPSET or ANGRY*1. We have generalized and assumed it means ANY INHIBITORY ACTION | ||

| -------- | -------------------- | |
| Ex34-06 | God revealed His mercy that counteracts DEPRESSION*1 | |
| Gn32-22 | Jacobs gift counteracted his being UPSET*2 *1 | |
|
|

*1 In these two verses the added idiom -- SUCH AND SUCH WENT PASS ON HIS FACE means that SUCH AND SUCH ASSUAGED or COUNTERACTED the depression. So eg although Jacob was UPSET/DEPRESSED about Esauv coming nevertheless the gift he prepared COUNTERACTED this DEPRESSION since he thought that the gift would appease Esauv. *2 There is a controversy among the commentators of the Genesis Rabbah whether ON HIS FACE should be best translated as UPSET or ANGRY (MAHARZU vs YEFAH TOAR) We have generalized: ON HIS FACE can mean ANY INHIBITORY EMOTION such as UPSET/DEPRESSED/ANGER. Its exact meaning will depend upon context. | ||
