Footnotes
727 | Strong’s #2573, chemeth. From the word chomah (#2346) a wall. Rather than construct the word from skin and so create dual-waterskin, we find the word constructed from wall. Hence, container, or bottle. Recall the note on word-family Ham (Cham) to which this word belongs See note on Genesis 10:1. It is placed, like a burden, on Hagar’s shoulder. |
728 | Compare, “For a male-child has been born to ourselves, a builder has been given to ourselves, and she is the Government over his shoulder…” Isaiah 9:6 literal Also Revelation 12. |
729 | A as place of swearing by seven lambs, cf. Genesis 21:30,31. |
