VERSE: Dt28-42a
RULE: The meaning of the Hebrew root Y-R-Sh depends on the
connecting word used with it. There are 3 possible meanings
EXAMPLES
--------
(1) In the KAL MODE,Y-R-SH means to INHERIT as in
Gn21-10 "He won't INHERIT with my son Isaac"
(2) In the PIEL MODE, Y-R-SH means to BECOME POOR as in
Gn45-11 "Lest you become POOR"
(3) In the HIFIL MODE, Y-R-SH means to conquer as in
Nu21-32 "And they CONQUERED the Emori which was there"
(3b) So in Dt28-42 since the HIFIL mode occurs the proper
translation would be "The LOCUSTS will IMPOVERISH (CONQUER)
the tree from its fruits"
