List of verses with Root Ayin-Tauv-Kuph = UPROOT
==================================================
VERSE TEXT OF VERSE WITH uprooting
======== =========================================
Jb14-18 UPROOTING rocks from their place
Jb09-05 UPROOTS mountains
Is28-09 (infants) UPROOTED from (mothers) breasts
Jb22-16 UPROOTED words from his friends *1
Gn12-08a UPROOTED (his tent)*2
NOTES
-----
*1 Note the double pun
- Mem-Lamed-Lamed means both WORD and LEAF
- Ayin-Tauv-Kuph means both WRITE and UPROOT
In each case you are taking some items (words/
leaves) from some source (Trees/Ideas)
LEAF-TREE:WORD-IDEAS::UPROOT:WRITE
*2 The basic idea here is that objects that
are strongly bonded - like rocks, mountains,
infants to breats - are UPROOTED.
Hence the tent which is pitched in the ground
is so to speak UPROOTED
For an alternative approach see footnote *10
---------------------- LONGER FOOTNOTES ------------------
*10 We could use the method of metaphor contrasts
cf The metaphor contrasts
Pitch a tent = PLANT a tent
Unpitch a tent = UPROOT a tent
The actual word used for PITCHING a tent are
- STRETCHING (Nun-Tet-Hey) the tent (Cf Gn12-08 Gn35-21)
The root for PLANT/BRANCH is Nun-Tet-Ayin
which obviously comes from Nun-Tet-Hey since
a BRANCH is a STRETCHED item.
