VERSE: Gn47-17a

RASHIS COVERED: Gn47-17a Ex15-13a

=================== NAHEL means GUIDE ===========================

OVERVIEW
--------
The Hebrew root NAHEL means TO GUIDE
It is distinguished from other words meaning WALK by the fact
that it usually denotes a GENTLE GUIDING like the GUIDING OF
SHEEP THAT are grazing. The examples below all illustrate this

THE LIST
--------
The list contains 5 examples of verses where NAHEL means
Guide. This Hebrew root does not have any other meanings*1
=================================================================
VERSE    TEXT OF VERSE WITH Nun-Hay-Lamed TRANSLATED as GUIDE
======== ========================================================
Gn33-14  I will GUIDE my flocks gently
Gn47-17a Joseph GUIDED them thru the fast by flock payment
Ex15-13a You GUIDED the Jews to your Holy dwelling*2
Is51-18  Jerusalemits drank the cup of poison without GUIDANCE
Ps23-03  God GUIDES me on gentle waters

NOTES
-----
*1 Isa07-19 speaks about NAHALLOL trees. Although some
   scholars think this comes from root N-H-L, Radacks father
   argues that this comes from the root Hay-Lamed-Lamed
   which can refer to trees

*2 Rashi notes that, Oonkelos, the Aramaic translation,
   translates Nun-Hay-Lamed as CARRYING A BURDEN. But
   Rashi dissents and points out that this is an Aramaic
   nuance. The Hebrew nuance is one of Guidance
