Genesis 27:40
וְ עַל חַרְבְּךָ תִחְיֶה וְ אֶת אָחִיךָ תַּעֲבֹד וְ הָיָה כַּ אֲשֶׁר תָּרִיד וּ פָרַקְתָּ עֻלֹּו מֵ עַל צַוָּארֶךָ
And upon your sword you are living, and אֶת-your brother you are serving. And he has become when you are causing to wander restlessly,917 and you have broken off his yoke from upon your neck.`
| 917 | Strong’s #7300, rud. To wander restlessly, roam. Strong’s says the primitive root is to tramp about. Only here and in Psalm 55:3 is it given in the Hiphil causative form. The scholars aren’t sure of the exact meaning in the Hiphil and so speculate to shew restlessness. Cain, Ishmael, and now Prepared have something strikingly in common. |
