1.      14^th letter; used for the number 50.

2.      Particle of entreaty: nâʾ (נָא) [pronounced naw], which means please, I pray you, I respectfully implore (ask, or request of) you, I urge you. It is part of an exhortation or part of an entreaty. It is equivalent to our word please, although it often does not sound right when translated that way. I cannot come up with a good one word translation, so I will do what the KJV does, but update it from I pray thee to I respectfully implore [or ask or request] you or I urge you, pray thee. We have an interesting use of the particle of entreaty in Judges 15:3. The woman’s father is not begging Samson to please, please, please take his other daughter; he is offering her to Samson, and the particle of entreaty recognizes Samson’s volition in this matter. The essence of his remark is more “Take her younger sister, if you would so choose.” There are combinations with conjunctions and interjections not dealt with below (see Gesenius p. 523). Strong's #4994 BDB #609.

3.      Masculine_noun: nôʾd (דאֹנ) [pronounced nohd], which means a skin container. It does not mean bottle as we think, but it was a container for liquid made out of (generally) goat skin. Strong’s #4997 BDB #609. Judges 4:19 1Sam. 16:20 Psalm 56:8

4.      Verb: which means to be comely, to be befitting, to be desirable, beautiful. In Niphal and Pilel. Strong’s #4998 BDB #610.

5.      Adjective: nâʾveh (ה∵ואָנ) [pronounced naw-VEH], which means comely, seemly, beautiful. Strong’s #5000 BDB #610. Psalm 33:1 147:1

6.      Masculine_noun: n^eʾûm (םֻאנ) [pronounced n^e-OOM], which means declaration, revelation, utterance, saying, oracle. This word for saying is actually not used too often until now (previously found only in Gen. 22:16 and Num. 14:28). [This word is found almost exclusively in the Qal participle?] It Strong's #5001&5002 BDB #610. Num. 24:3 1Sam. 2:30 Psalm 110:1 Zech. 12:1

7.      Verb: nâʾam (ם ַאָנ) [pronounced naw-AHM], which means to utter a prophecy, to speak as a prophet. Strong’s #5001 BDB #610.

10.    Masculine_noun: which means adultery. Strong’s #5005 BDB #610.

11.    Verb: nâʾats (ץ ַאָנ) [pronounced naw-AHTZ], which means to abhor, to despise, to spurn, to disgust and it has a direct object (Psalm 107:11 Prov. 1:30) more often than not (Deut. 32:19 Psalm 10:3 Jer. 14:21). Strong’s #5006 BDB #610. Deut. 32:19 Psalm 10:3, 12 1Sam. 2:17

12.    Feminine_noun: which means contempt, contumely. (Listed twice in BDB?). Strong’s #5007 BDB #611.

15.    Verb: nâʾar (נָאַר) [pronounced naw-AHR], which means to abhor, to reject, to spurn. Only in Piel and meaning derived from context. Strong’s #5010 BDB #611. Psalm 89:39

17.    Verb: which means to call, to proclaim, to name. Strong’s #none BDB #611.

18.    Noun: nâbîyʾ (נָבִיא) [pronounced naw^b-VEE], which means spokesman, speaker, prophet. The term nâbîyʾ is found in Gen. 20:7 Ex. 7:1 Num. 11:29 12:6 Deut. 13:1, 3, 5 18:15, 18, 20, 22 34:10 Judges 6:8 1Sam. 3:20. BDB translates nâbîyʾ as spokesman, speaker, prophet. In other words, what we view as prophesy is incidental to the meaning of both the verb and the noun. And, there is nothing by way of inference, either in context or in the previous usage of the noun cognate that which indicates that these men are speaking in tongues or in some sort of ecstatic state with verbal accompaniment. Strong's #5030 BDB #611. Judges 6:7 1Sam. 3:20 9:9 19:20 22:5 28:6 2Sam. 7:2 1Chron. 16:22 Psalm 105:15

19.    Verb: nâbâʾ (אָבָנ) [pronounced naw^b-VAW], which means to prophesy, to speak divine viewpoint. It is found in the Niphal (passive) stem and in the Hithpael (intensive reflexive) stem. In 1Sam. 10:5, nâbâʾ is in the Hithpael, indicating that they are speaking to one another. There is no real reason to see this as ecstatic or a gibberish or even as them listing groups of events about to occur. They are simply speaking animatedly (intensive) amongst one another (reflexive) divine viewpoint. In other words, they are simply speaking in a very animated about divine viewpoint or Bible doctrine. Num. 11:25 is one of the rare instances where the Hithpael (the reflexive of the Piel) acts more as a passive voice; furthermore, this is the first occurrence of this verb in the Old Testament (it is found in Num. 11:26–27, scattered parsimoniously in some of the historical books, such as in 1Sam. 10:11, 13 1Kings 22:10 2Chron. 18:7, 9; and this word occurs most frequently in Jeremiah and Ezekiel—almost 75 times). The upshot of this is we do not have a precedence in terms of the use of this verb. However, its noun cognate, nâbîyʾ (אי  ̣ב ָנ) [pronounced naw^b-VEE] has already when found in Gen. 20:7 and Ex. 7:1. In Genesis, God tells Abimelech that Abram is a prophet, although Abram had not, up until that time, cited any future events which were to come to pass; and in Ex. 7:1, there was an analogy set up. God's plan was for Him to speak to Moses and for Moses to communicate God's will to Pharaoh, as God's prophet. However, since Moses was suffering from a terrific case of shyness, God said, "I will make you God to Pharaoh and your brother Aaron will be your prophet." In these two instances, even though there would be some prophecy involved in what Aaron would tell Pharaoh, the thrust of what is being said is divine viewpoint. A prophet is a person who is speaking to man from God; a prophet is a man who speaks from God and communicates divine viewpoint to man; a prophet represents God to man (just as a priest primarily represents man before God). People get carried away and overemphasize the prophetic nature of what is being said. Prophecy is involved because God is omniscient—He knows the end from the beginning—so obviously anything spoken directly from God will contain elements of what we consider prophesy, simply because the future to God is no different than the past. Time applies to us, because we are in time; God is not confined by time. Furthermore, BDB translates nâbîy’ as spokesman, speaker, prophet. In other words, what we view as prophesy is incidental to the meaning of both the verb and the noun. And, there is nothing by way of inference, either in context or in the previous usage of the noun cognate that which indicates that these men are speaking in tongues or in some sort of ecstatic state with verbal accompaniment. Verb: Strong’s #5012 BDB #612. [Noun: Strong's #5030 BDB #611] Num. 11:25 1Sam. 10:5, 6, 11 18:10 19:20

20.    Feminine_noun: which means prophecy. Late (2Chronicles and Nehemiah). Can refer to specific and genuine (2Chron. 15:8), as well as to false prophecy (Neh. 6:12). It also refers to prophetical writing (2Chron. 9:29). Strong’s #5016 BDB #612.

21.    Feminine_singular_noun: n^ebîyʾâh (הָאי  ̣ב׃נ) [pronounced n^ebvee-AW], which means prophetess; wife of a prophet; used of true and false prophets. Strong’s #5031 BDB #612. Judges 4:4

22.    Verb: nâ^bva^bv (ב ַב ָנ) [pronounced naw^b-VAH^BV or naw-VAHV], which means to hollow out; and it is only found in Ex. 27:8 38:7 Job 11:12 Jer. 52:21.* My thinking is that this is a man who is empty-headed rather than a person who has been struck with ennui (that is, feels empty inside due to boredom or tedium). Barnes points out that the Hebrew means hollowed out, empty; so the metaphorical meaning would be empty, foolish, insincere, hypocritical. Strong’s #5014 BDB #612. Job 11:12

23.    Masculine_proper_noun: which is transliterated Nebuchadnezzar. Strong’s #5019 BDB #613.

24.    Verb: which means to bark. Used of dogs. Strong’s #5024 BDB #613.

25.    Verb: nâbaţ (ט ַבָנ) [pronounced naw^b-VAHT] and it means to look intently at, to examine carefully. When God asked Abraham to look into the sky to count the stars, the word used was nâbaţ. When Lot's wife looked behind to see Sodom, it was not a quick glance, but a look of longing—nâbaţ. Here, in Zech. 12:10, the Israelites are caused to look carefully at something; they examine something with great care and intent. This verb generally occurs in the Hiphil, Isa. 5:30 being the only exception, where it is found in the Piel. Strong's #5027 BDB #613. Num. 21:9 1Sam. 2:32 16:7 17:42 24:8 Psalm 10:14 33:13 34:5 142:4 Zech. 12:10

26.    Masculine_noun: which means expectation. Strong’s #4007 BDB #613.

27.    Masculine_noun: which means spring. Strong’s #5033 BDB #614

28.    Masculine_noun1: nêbel (ל∵ב̤נ) [pronounced NAY^B-vel], which means skin-bottle, skin, earthen jar, pitcher, container. According to Gesenius, this refers to a vessel of any sort used for liquids. Also spelled with a short e. Strong’s #5035 BDB #614. 1Sam. 1:24 10:3 25:18

29.    Masculine_noun: nêbel (נֵבֶל) [pronounced NAY^B-vel], which mean means a portable harp, lute, guitar. Some kind of musical instrument. Also spelled with a short e. This is sort of a lyre with ten strings and it is in the shape of an earthen wine bottle (this was taken from Barnes Notes, p. 25 in 1Sam. 10 and not used yet). Strong’s #5035 BDB #614. 1Sam. 10:5 2Sam. 6:5 1Chron. 16:5 Psalm 57:8

30.    Verb2: which means to be senseless, foolish. Strong’s #5034 BDB #614.

31.    Adjective: nâbâl (לָבָנ) [pronounced naw^b-VAWL], which means stupid, foolish, fool, foolish with regard to spiritual matters; foolishly impious. (Deut. 32:6,21 Psalm 14:1 30:8 2Sam. 3:33). Keil and Delitzsch say it is one who thinks madly and acts impiously. These people are then described. They are nâbâl (ל ָב ָנ) [pronounced na^b-VAL], which is reasonably translated foolish as long as this is understood in the sense of having no spiritual understanding. This is being foolish in all matters related to spirituality. The completely lack spiritual discernment. This is such an insult to the Israelite, who has been entrusted with God’s Word and has seen the great acts of God. This is being bitch-slapped by God. It is a terrific insult. Strong’s #5036 BDB #614. Deut. 32:6, 21 2Sam. 3:33 Job 2:10

32.    Feminine_noun: n^ebâlâh (הָלָב׃נ) [pronounced n^ebvaw-LAW], which means senseless deed, vile act, disgraceful thing. The KJV often renders this folly, but that is too tame for its application to rape and incest (Gen. 34:7 2Sam. 13:12). This term is also used of a woman who tries to pass herself off as a virgin at the outset of a marriage, when she is not (Deut. 22:21). The NIV Study Bible describes it as an expression of outrage at the willful perversion of what is right and natural. See also Joshua 7:15 Judges 19:23–24 20:6, 10 Job 42:8 Isa. 9:17 32:6 Jer. 29:23.* Strong’s #5039 BDB #615. Joshua 7:15 Judges 19:23, 24 20:6 1Sam. 25:25

33.    Feminine_noun: which means immodesty, shamelessness. Strong’s #5039 BDB #615.

34.    Verb: nâ^bvêl (ל ֵב ָנ) [pronounced naw-^BVAIL], which means to sink down, to drop down, to languish, to wither and fall, to fade. Being more specific, ➊ In relation to leaves and flowers, it means to become withered, faded (Psalm 1:3 Isa. 1:30 Ezek. 47:12); ➋ it is used figuratively of men—to fall down, to faint, to lose strength (Ex. 18:18 Psalm 18:46 Isa. 24:4); ➌ it means to be foolish, to act foolishly; that is, withering and decay are applied to folly and impiety, just as strength is applied to virtue and piety (Prov. 30:32). The Piel provides a couple more meanings. Nâ^bvêl (ל ֵב ָנ) [pronounced naw^b-VAIL] is found mostly in the Qal and generally should be translated fade (Psalm 1:3 Isa. 1:30 24:4 28:1 Jer. 8:13). The Piel of this verb means to look upon as foolish, esteem as foolish, to lightly esteem. Strong’s #5034 BDB #614. BDB #615. Deut. 32:15 Job 14:18

35.    Masculine_proper_noun: Nâbâl (לָבָנ) [pronounced naw^b -VAWL], which means fool and is transliterated Nabal. Why isn’t this BDB #633? Strong’s #5037 BDB #635. 1Sam. 25:3 27:3 2Sam. 2:2

36.    Feminine_singular_noun: n^ebvêlâh (ה ָל ֵב  ׃נ) [pronounced n^ebvay-LAW], which means corpse, carcass. Strong’s #5038 BDB #615. Joshua 8:29

37.    Verb: nâbaʿ (ע-בָנ) [pronounced naw^b-VAHĢ], which means to pour out, to gush out, to gush forth, to flow, to spring, to bubble up. It is used figuratively several times in Scripture to the gushing out of speech. Strong’s #5042 BDB #615. Psalm 19:2 59:7

38.    Masculine_noun: which means spring of water.

39.    Verb:

40.    Masculine_noun: nege^bv (ב ∵ג ∵נ) [pronounced ne-GHE^BV] is a very well defined portion of Israel and, in this case, is best translated south-country; it often is rendered Negev or Negeb; and it can means south, southward. The word originally meant south (Gen. 13:14) and became the general designation for this portion of the promised land (Gen. 12:9 13:1, 3 20:1). The NIV (p. 412) tells me that this word means dry, but I can find no evidence of that. Strong's #5045 BDB #616. Num. 13:17 Joshua 15:1 Judges 1:9, 15 1Sam. 14:5 20:41 27:10 30:1

41.    Verb: nâgad (נָגַד) [pronounced naw-GAHD], which means to make conspicuous, to make known, to expound, to explain, to declare, to inform, to confess, to make it pitifully obvious that. This verb is found only in the Hiphil and the Hophal. In all of these cases, something is being revealed to someone else, usually verbally. Since it is a clear, unequivocal revelation, that is how I have rendered it here. In all of these cases, something is being revealed to someone else, usually verbally. With the negative, the subject keeps this information under his hat. Strong's #5046 BDB #616. (Perhaps more work on this?) The Doctrine of Fasting (Isa. 58:1) Gen. Ex., Lev.? Deut. 30:18 Joshua 2:14, 20 7:19 9:24 Judges 4:12 9:7, 47 13:10 14:2, 12, 13 16:6, 10 Ruth 2:11, 19b 1Sam. 3:13, 15, 18 4:13 8:8 9:6, 18 10:15 11:9 15:12 17:31 18:20 19:2, 19 20:9 22:21 23:1, 7 24:1 25:8 27:4, 11 2Sam. 1:4 4:10 6:12 7:11 Job 11:6 12:7 15:18 17:5 21:31 Psalm 19:1 52 inscription 142:2 147:19

42.    Substantive/adverb/preposition: neged (נֶגֶד) [pronounced NEH-ged], which means what is conspicuous when it is a substantive and, as a preposition, in front of, in the sight of, opposite to, before (in the sense of being in front of). Strong’s #5048 BDB #617. Deut. 32:52 Job 4:16 10:17 Psalm 78:12 Joshua 6:5 8:11, 33 Ruth 4:4a 1Sam. 12:3 15:30 16:6 1Chron. 8:32 Psalm 23:5 44:15 52:9 89:36

43.    Compound_preposition: lâmed + neged (ד∵ג∵נ) [pronounced NEH-ged], which means what is conspicuous when it is a substantive and, as a preposition, in front of, in the sight of, opposite to. With the lâmed prefixed preposition, it means in front of, before, in the sight of, in the presence of. With this in mind, this could be rendered before me in Job 10:17. This is rendered standing over against him (Young, Rotherham), standing opposite him (NASB), standing in front of him (NIV), and stood opposite him (NKJV). Strong’s #5048 BDB #617. Joshua 5:13 Psalm 54:3

44.    Compound_preposition: min + neged (ד∵ג∵נ) [pronounced NEH-ged], which means what is conspicuous when it is a substantive and, as a preposition, in front of, in the sight of, opposite to. With min, this means in front of, from before. Strong’s #5048 BDB #617. Judges 9:17 20:34 Psalm 10:5

45.    Masculine_noun: nâgîyd (נָגִיד)   [pronounced naw-GEED], which means prince, crown-prince, leader, ruler, noble. Gordon leans toward king-designate or crown-prince. This word comes from the original concept of a leader and ruler and then is applied to the virtues which become a prince. This word comes from a substantive (also, adverb and preposition) which means what is conspicuous, what is right in front of you (Strong’s #5048 BDB #617); and the meaning here is derived from that; the one who is pre-eminent, the one which stands right out front—that one is the leader or prince or ruler. Strong's #5057 BDB #617. [Synonym: nâdîy^bv (בי ̣ד ָנ) [pronounced naw-DEE^BV] (Strong's #5081 BDB #622), which means voluntary, willing, spontaneous, ready, giving spontaneously and liberally, generous, noble (which, in the Oriental mind, is closely connected to the concepts of giving and liberality, and is a reference to character), nobility of race or station. Their meanings are the same, but proceed in the opposite order: with nâgîy^bv, you are a ruler, and therefore should exhibit certain qualities; with nâdîy^bv, you have leadership qualities and often, therefore, become a leader]. 1Sam. 9:16 13:14 25:30 2Sam. 5:2 7:8 1Chron. 5:1b–2 12:27 Job (12:21)

46.    Verb: nâgah (-גָנ) [pronounced naw-GAH], which means to shine (in the Qal) and to enlighten (in the Hiphil). Strong’s #5050 BDB #618. Job 18:5

47.    Feminine_noun: which means brightness. Strong’s #5051 BDB #618.

48.    Feminine_noun: nôgahh (-גֹנ) [pronounced NOH-gah], which means brightness; figuratively used for prosperity. Strong’s #5054 BDB #618.

49.    Masculine_proper_noun: Nôgahh (-גֹנ) [pronounced NOH-gah], which means brightness, shining; prosperity transliterated Nogah. Strong’s #5052 BDB #618. 1Sam. 14:6

50.    Verb: nâgach (ח-גָנ) [pronounced naw-GAHKH], which means to push, to thrust, to gore, to strike with the horn [used of horned animals]. In the Piel, it is used of a victor prostrating nations before him (see Deut. 33:17 1Kings 22:11 Psalm 44:5). This word is used of animals goring a person in Ex. 21:28, 31–32. Its Piel meaning is pretty much the same as its Qal meaning in Ezek. 34:21 Dan. 8:4. Interestingly enough, the word for push we have seen before also related to animals. In the early portion of the Law, in Ex. 21:28–32, which deals with the goring by an ox, the word for gore is the same as the word here for push. Where this verse reads that it will push people together, this means that Israel will be pushed out of the land as a group throughout the world. We find this same word in Psalm 44:5. Strong’s #5055 BDB #618. Deut. 33:17 Psalm 44:5

51.    Adjective: which means addicted to goring. Strong’s #5056 BDB #618.

52.    Masculine_noun: which means sickle. Strong’s #4038 BDB #618.

53.    Verb: nâgan (ן -גָנ) [pronounced naw-GAHN], which means to touch, to play a stringed instrument, to strike strings. Strong’s #5059 BDB #618. Only found in Piel. 1Sam. 16:16 18:10 19:9 Psalm 33:3 (54 inscription) 68:25

54.    Feminine_noun: n^egîynâh (הָני.גנ) [pronounced n^egee-NAW], which means music from stringed instruments; a stringed instrument; a song or psalm [especially arranged for stringed instruments]. Strong’s #5058 BDB #618. Psalm 54 inscription

55.    Feminine_noun: which means a mocking, derisive song. Strong’s #4485 BDB #618.

56.    Verb: nâgaʿ (נָגַע) [pronounced naw-GAHĢ], which means to touch, to reach out and touch. This verb is very similar to another verb which means to strike down, to kill; this verb is not quite as strong, but there is a potential for harm indicated. Whereas the similar verb generally means to strike someone down so that they die; this can mean to simply strike someone down. In the Niphal (the passive stem), it means to be stricken down, to be defeated; and in Joshua 8:15, it means to feign defeat. The subsequent bêyth preposition can refer either to the means of touching someone or to that person who is touched (nâgaʿ is often followed by a preposition). The Pual is the passive of the Piel (intensive) stem. The Piel means to strike, to strike down, to be stricken down [by God]. The passive means to be stricken down, to be beaten down, to be struck down by God. Strong's #5060 BDB #619. Joshua 8:15 9:19 Judges 6:21 20:34, 41 Ruth 2:8 1Sam. 4:2 6:9 10:26 14:9 2Sam. 5:8 1Chron. 16:22 Job 1:11 5:19 6:7 19:21 20:6 Psalm 73:5, 14

57.    Masculine_noun: negaʿ (נֶעַע) [pronounced NEH-gahģ], which means bruise, injury, wound; swelling, eruption [on the skin]; mark [from a plague]. It is better understood when viewed between its two verbs nâgaʿ (נֶעַע) [pronounced naw-GAHĢ], which means to touch and nâgaph (ף ַג ָנ) [pronounced naw-GAHF] which means to strike, to hit. With the close association of these words, bruised area might be a more literal translation, as though it is the result of being slugged. However, it is used consistently throughout Leviticus 13 and 14 for a diseased area, that we will stick with that rendering. It should be pointed out that it is translated plague by the KJV, being found in Gen. 12:17 and Ex. 11:1 (its only two appearances prior to Leviticus). Wound, injury, bruise are also good renderings of this word. V. 2 pretty much defines what it is we are speaking of in terms of both the disease and the word negaʿ (which reads: a swelling or an eruption or a spot on the skin of his body) Strong's #5061 BDB #619. Lev. 13:3 2Sam. 7:14

58.    Verb: nâgaph (נָגַף) [pronounced naw-GAHF] which means to strike, to strike down, to hit. The Niphal means to be struck down, to be smitten, to be hit. It is the passive stem so the subject receives the action of the verb. This word is often used when the subject defeats the object in battle. Strong's #5062 BDB #619. (Lev. Ex.?)

59.    Masculine_noun: which means a blow, a striking. Strong’s #5063 BDB #620.

60.    Feminine_noun: maggêphâh (מַגֵּפָה) [pronounced mahg-gay-FAW], which means a blow, a slaughter, plague, pestilence. Strong’s #4046 BDB #620. 1Sam. 4:17 6:4 Psalm 106:29

61.    Verb: nâgar (ר-גָנ) [pronounced naw-GAHR], which means to pour out, to push down; to deliver over [to the power of something else], to flow, to run. In the Niphal, it means to be poured out, to be spilled, to vanish; the latter being a figurative use of the verb (i.e., when you pour water out on the ground, it vanishes rather quickly. Strong’s #5064 BDB #620. Job 20:28 Psalm 63:10

62.    Verb: nâgas ( ַג ָנ) [pronounced naw-GAS] means to exact, require, demand; the participle of this verb was used for the taskmasters of Exodus, referring to the Egyptian slave drivers. This could also be rendered oppressor, driver, exactor, ruler, tyrant. Strong’s #5065 BDB #620. The Doctrine of Fasting (Isa. 58:3) Deut. 15:2 1Sam. 13:6 Job 3:18

63.    Verb: nâgash (נָגַש) [pronounced naw-GASH], which means to come near, to draw near, to approach, to come hither in the Qal stem; and to bring near, to bring hither, to be brought in the Hiphil. In the Niphal, which is the passive. It appears have the almost identical meaning of qârav. The priests will be brought near, or drawn near. The Niphal is often used in worship. Strong's #5066 BDB #620. Lev. 2:8 Deut. 21:5 Joshua 3:9 8:11 14:6 Judges 6:19 20:(22)23 1Sam. 7:10 9:18 13:9 14:18 15:32 17:16, 40 23:9 28:25 30:7, 21 2Sam. 1:15 3:34

64.    Verb: which means to drive away, to thrust aside. Strong’s #5077 BDB #621.

65.    Verb: nâdab (בַדָנ) [pronounced naw-DAHB^v], which means (without an object): to volunteer [oneself], to be willing to; to be generous; (with an object) to willingly offer; to incite, to urge, to drive; to impel; to offer up. BDB gives several other meanings, among them to incite, impel, volunteer, to offer free-will offerings. Without a direction object, we could probably render this as freely volunteer. I could probably study this more where it is found. Strong’s #5068 BDB #621. Judges 5:2, 9

66.    Feminine_noun: n^edâbâh (הָבָדנ) [pronounced n^e-DAW^b-VAW], which means freewill, readiness of mind [to give], freely, with a willing mind, willing to volunteer; a spontaneous offering, a freewill sacrifice; largeness, abundance. Strong’s #5071 BDB #621. Psalm 54:6 68:9 110:3

67.    Adjective/Masculine_noun: nâdîyb (נָדִיב) [pronounced naw-DEE^BV], which means a noble [person], a noble race [or station]; a prince. ➊ voluntary, willing, spontaneous, ready (Ex. 35:5, 22 2Chron. 28:21 Psalm 51:14); ➋ giving spontaneously and liberally (Prov. 19:6); ➌ generous, noble (which, in the Oriental mind, is closely connected to the concepts of giving and liberality, and is a reference to character) (Isa. 32:5, 8 Prov. 17:7); ➍ nobility of race or station and therefore, often translated prince(s) (Job 34:18 Psalm 107:40 113:8). Strong's #5081 BDB #622. [This has a synonym, nâgîyd (די̣גָנ) [pronounced naw-GEED] (Strong's #5057 BDB #617), whose meaning is the same, but proceeds in the opposite order. This word comes from the original concept of a leader and ruler and then is applied to the virtues which become a prince.] 1Sam. 2:8 2Sam. (8:14) Job 12:21 21:28 Psalm 47:9 118:8

68.    Feminine_noun: which means nobility, nobleness. Strong’s #5082 BDB #622.

69.    Verb: nâdad (דַדָנ) [pronounced naw-DAHD], which means to move; to move oneself, to wander about, to stray; to retreat, to flee, to depart; to fly [away], to flutter; to remove, to put away; to abominate. In the Hiphil, this means to chase away. Strong’s #5074 BDB #622. Job 18:18 20:8 Psalm 68:12

70.    Masculine_noun: What Job’s night is filled with is a word found only in this verse; but it is closely related to the verb nâdad (ד ַד ָנ) [pronounced naw-DAHD], which means retreat, flee, depart, stray, wander, flutter. Therefore, tossing and turning is a reasonable rendering. Noun: Strong’s #5076 BDB #622. Job 7:4

71.    Feminine_noun: nîdâh (ה ָ  ̣נ) [pronounced nid-DAWH] and it means impurity, as in abhorrent, shunned and this is a word associated with menstruation (see Lev. 15:19–20, 24–26 Ezek. 18:6) and we could translate it menstruation, but not everywhere (e.g., Lev. 20:21) and only by implication. BDB gives as the primary English equivalent impurity and Strong's renders this rejection, and (by implication) impurity. The key to the meaning is the verb from whence this word is derived. Therefore impurity or rejection because of impurity would be the proper way to render this word. Nâdach (ח ַד ָנ) [pronounced naw-DAHKH] means to drive away, to banish, to expel (Deut. 30:4 2Sam. 14:13–14 Job 6:13 Jer. 49:5). Obviously the woman is not being banished, nor is she expelled, except that ceremonially she is banished or separated. Menstruation is implied and a separation or ceremonial removal is implied. Strong's #5080 (v) Strong's #5079 BDB #622. Lev. 12:2 Num. 19:9 See The Doctrine of Nîdâh

72.    Masculine_noun: nêd (ד ֵנ) [pronounced nade], which means a heap (of waters). According to Rotherham (p. 543), this should be a skin-bottle in Psalm 33:7 (a different word, apparently). Strong’s #5067 BDB #622. Joshua 3:13 Psalm 33:7

73.    Verb: which means to put away, to exclude. Piel. Strong’s #5077 BDB #622.

74.    Masculine_noun: which means gift. Strong’s #5078 BDB #622.

75.    Verb: nâdach (ח ַד ָנ) [pronounced naw-DAHKH], which means banish, cast away, cast down, compel, draw away. The Niphal is the passive stem and it means specifically to compel, to be drawn away. The Niphal perfect is also found in Deut. 19:5 30:17 Job 6:13 Jer. 40:12 43:5 49:5 (*listing of all Niphal perf) This same word is found in the Hiphil in Deut. 13:5, 10, where it speaks of a false prophet drawing away, or seducing or compelling the people to worship the creature rather than the Creator. Strong's #5080 BDB #623. Deut. 4:19 Job 13:25

76.    Masculine_noun: which means a thing to draw aside, an enticement. Strong’s #4065 BDB #623.

77.    Masculine_noun1: which means a gift. Strong’s #5083 BDB #623.

78.    Masculine_noun2: which means a sheath. Strong’s #5084 BDB #623.

79.    Verb: nâdaph (ף-דָנ) [pronounced naw-DAHF], which means to dispel, to drive, to drive away [about]; to blow away; to put to flight; to conquer. Strong’s #5086 BDB #623. Psalm 68:2

80.    Verb: nâdar (רַדָנ) [pronounced naw-DAHR], which means to vow, to make a promise, to make a commitment, to give a word of assurance concerning a matter, to give one’s personal and honorable guarantee, to make a solemn oath or pledge to do or not to do a thing. Jacob, after his dream of the ladder reaching to heaven, made a private vow to God (Gen. 28:20). Israel as a nation, made a vow to God in Num. 21:2. Jephthah, while filled with the Holy Spirit, made a vow to God (Judges 11:29–30). Hannah, before God and Eli the priest, made a vow concerning her son Samuel in 1Sam. 1:9–11. Vows are primarily made to God (Deut. 23:23 2Sam. 15:7 Psalm 133:2) and may or may not be public. The majority of the vows named in the Bible tend to be made in private. There appears to be no more or less of a binding affect whether these vows are made in public or private. Strong’s #5087 BDB #623. Num. 30:2 1Sam. 1:11 Psalm 132:2

81.    Masculine_noun: nêder (ר∵דֵנ) [pronounced NAY-der], which means vow, the giving of one’s word of assurance, a personal guarantee, a promise, a commitment. Strong’s #5088 BDB #623. Num. 30:2 Judges 11:39 1Sam. 1:11, 21 Psalm 56:12

82.    Verb1: nâhag (גַהָנ) [pronounced naw-HAHG], which means to pant, to urge on a course, to drive [animals] along, to lead [a flock], to drive away, to lead [anyone], to lead away [as a captive]. It also has to pant, to act [with wisdom], which makes little sense. In the Piel, means to drive away, to lead on, to guide. Strong’s #5090 BDB #624. 1Sam. 23:5 2Sam. 6:3

83.    Masculine_noun: which means driving, charioteering. Strong’s #4491 BDB #624.

84.    Verb2: nâhag (גַהָנ) [pronounced naw-HAHG], which is found only in the Piel, and it means to wail, to lament. Strong’s #5090 BDB #624.

85.    Verb: nâhâh (הָהָנ) [pronounced naw-HAW], which means to groan; to wail, to lament. It is an onomatopoetic word. Although JPS calls the meaning of this verb into question (it does disagree with the Septuagint), it is found also in Ezek. 32:18 and Micah 2:4 and it clearly means the same thing. There are also several cognates which are in agreement with this meaning. Strong’s #5091 BDB #624. 1Sam. 7:2

86.    Masculine_noun: which means wailing, lamentation, moaning. Strong’s #5092 BDB #624.

87.    Feminine_noun: which means wailing, lamentation, moaning. Strong’s #5093 BDB #624.

89.    Verb: nâhal (ל-הָנ) [pronounced naw-HAHL], which means to lead, to guide to a watering place; to guard, to provide for, to sustain. Except for Gen. 33:14, this is always found in the Piel. Strong’s #5095 BDB #624. Psalm 23:2 78:26

90.    Masculine_noun: which means pasture, watering place. Strong’s #5097 BDB #625.

91.    Proper_noun_location: Nahălil (לֹלֲה-נ) [pronounced nah-huh-LOHL], which means pasture, watering place; transliterated Nahalol. Same as Strong's #5097. Strong's #5096 BDB #625. Judges 1:30

92.    Verb: which means to growl, to groan. Strong’s #5098 BDB #625.

93.    Masculine_noun: which means growling of a lion. Strong’s #5099 BDB #625.

94.    Feminine_noun: which means growling, groaning. Strong’s #5100 BDB #625.

95.    Verb: which means to bray, to cry. Strong’s #5101 BDB #625.

96.    Verb1: which means to flow, to stream. Strong’s #5102 BDB #625.

97.    Masculine_noun: nâhâr (נָהָר) [pronounced naw-HAWR], which means stream, river. This is the most common word for river in the Hebrew; although the KJV also translates it floods as well. Strong’s #5104 BDB #625. Judges 3:8 2Sam. 8:3 Job 20:17 Psalm 24:2 46:5 89:25

98.    Verb2: nâhar (ר-הָנ) [pronounced naw-HAHR], which means to shine, to beam. Strong’s #5102 BDB #626. Psalm 34:5

99.    Feminine_noun: which means daylight, light. Strong’s #5105 BDB #626.

100.  Feminine plural of a noun: which occurs only here, and therefore its meaning is known primarily by context. Various translators suggest dens (NASB, Owen), flowings (Young), shelters (NIV), hollows. BDB suggests that we think of a cave with light coming down into it (as the word is very similar to the verb for shine, beam—Strong’s #5102 BDB #626). Barnes suggests that these are hiding places cut out by the torrents, and obviously not useable during the rainy season. Keil and Delitzsch reject the translation light holes or holes with openings to the light, but agree with Barnes that these are more mountain ravines hollowed out by the torrents. Strong’s #4492 BDB #626. Judges 6:2*

101.  Verb: nûwʾ (אנ) [pronounced noo], which means to stand in opposition to, to take a stand against (such that the aims, position, desire, etc. of the other person is hindered, nullified, or restrained). This verb is only found in Num. 30:5, 8, 11 32:7, 9 Psalm 33:10 141:5. The verb Strong's #5106 BDB #626. Num. 14:34 (see also Strong's #8569) Psalm 33:10

102.  Feminine_noun: t^enûwʾâh (ה ָאנ  ׃) [pronounced t'noo-AH]. It is only found here and in Job 33:10. Obviously, it is hard to determine its meaning based upon the context of two passages. Luckily, we have a verb with the same base: nûw’ (אנ) [pronounced noo] and this verb is only found in Num. 30:5, 8, 11 32:7, 9 Psalm 33:10 141:5. Recall how some verbs could affix a tâw () [pronounced taw] to the beginning in order to form a related noun. The additional âh at the end of a word was the feminine gender. The verb means to stand in opposition to, to take a stand against (such that the aims, position, desire, etc. of the other person is hindered, nullified, or restrained). This is merely the corresponding noun. Strong's #8569 BDB #626. Num. 14:34 (verb is Strong's #5106)

103.  Verb: which means to bear fruit. Strong’s #5107 BDB #626.

104.  Masculine_noun: which means fruit. Strong’s #5108 BDB #626.

105.  Feminine_noun: t^enûw^bvâh (הָבנ ) [pronounced t’noo-VAW], which means fruit, produce. Strong’s #8570 BDB #626. Judges 9:11

106.  Verb: nûwd (דנ) [pronounced nood], which means to mourn, to commiserate, to show sympathy (Job 2:11 42:11 Psalm 69:20 Isa. 51:19), as well as to wander about, to remove (Prov. 26:2 Jer. 49:30 50:3) Strong’s #5110 BDB #626. Job 2:11c (16:5)

107.  Masculine_noun: nôwd (דנ) [pronounced nohd], which means wandering. Strong’s #5112 BDB #627. Psalm 56:8

108.  Masculine_noun: which means quivering motion. Strong’s #5205 BDB #627. Job 16:5*

109.  Masculine_noun: which means a shaking, a wagging. Strong’s #4493 BDB #627.

110.  Verb: which means to beautify, to be beautiful. Other second, but dubious meanings. Strong’s #5115 BDB #627.

111.  Masculine_noun1: nâveh (ה∵וָנ) [pronounced naw-VEH], and it means abode of a shepherd, abode of a shepherd’s flocks, habitation (the main translation in the KJV). It is used for the habitation of a nation (Psalm 79:7 Prov. 3:33 Isa. 32:18). It’s first use is in Ex. 15:13 (which is the only time it is found in the Pentateuch). For right now, let’s go with area [or region] of habitation. Used in poetry. This might well-deserve a doctrinal study. Strong’s #5116 BDB #627. 1Sam. (19:19) 2Sam. 7:8 Job 5:3, 24 18:15

112.  Verb2: nâvâh (נָוָה) [pronounced naw-VAW], which means to dwell, to abide. Strong’s #5115 BDB #627.

113.  Adjective2: nâveh (נָוֶה) [pronounced naw-VEH], which means dwelling, abiding. See two words below. Strong’s #5116 BDB #627. 1Sam. (19:19)

114.  Feminine_noun2: nâvâh (נָוָה) [pronounced naw-VAW], which means pasture, meadow. See below. Strong’s #5116 BDB #627. 1Sam. (19:19)

115.  Feminine_noun: nâʾâh (נָאָה) [pronounced naw-AW], which means pastures, meadows; obviously a pleasant piece of land. BDB considers this word to be equivalent to Strong’s #5116 and the New Englishman’s Hebrew Concordance, Gesenius and Strong consider them to be different words. See above. Strong’s #4999 BDB #627. 1Sam. (19:19) Psalm 23:2 83:12

116.  Location: nâvôyth (טיֹוָנ) [pronounced naw-VOYTH], which means pasture, meadow; habitation of a shepherd; and is transliterated Naioth. Several different spellings Strong’s #5121 BDB #627. 1Sam. 19:17 20:1

117.  Verb: nûwach (נוּחַ) [pronounced NOO-ahkh], which means rest, cause to rest, to be at rest, set down, lay down, deposit, leave. In the Hiphil, this means to deposit, to set down, to cause to rest. This is not the word used for God resting after his 6 days of restoration, but it is first used for the ark coming to rest on Mount Ararat (Gen. 8:4). It is often used of God causing men and nations to be at rest (at peace, essentially) (Ex. 33:14 Joshua 22:4 23:1 2Sam. 7:1 Lam. 5:5). In the voluntative Hiphil imperative, it means permit me to rest, allow me to rest, permission to rest. This is not ingratiating, but more of a recognition of the man’s authority over him. It is the recruit saying, permission to speak freely, sir. Strong’s #5117 (and #3240) BDB #628. The Doctrine of Tongues (Isa. 28:12) (See synonym Strong’s #8252). Num. 32:15 Deut. 12:10 Joshua 1:13 3:13 4:3, 8 21:44 22:4 23:1 Judges 2:23 6:18, 20 16:26 1Sam. 6:18 10:25 25:9 2Sam. 7:1, 11 1Chron. 16:21 Job 3:26 Psalm 105:14

118.  Feminine_noun: nachath (ת-ח-נ) [pronounced NAH-khahth], which means tranquility, quietness, rest. Strong’s #5183 BDB #629. Job 17:16

119.  Masculine_proper_noun: which is transliterated Noah. Strong’s #5146 BDB #629.

120.  Masculine_noun: nîychôach (נִיחֹחַ) [pronounced nee-KHOH-ahkh], which means tranquilizing, soothing, quieting; sweet, pleasant. Unfortunately, it does not occur apart from rêyach and is found nowhere in the Bible but in the Pentateuch (only once in Genesis, twice in Numbers and not at all in Deuteronomy) and in Ezekiel 6:13 16:19 20:28, 41. It is said to mean tranquilizing, soothing, quieting by BDB and this would be a better rendering than sweet or pleasing. The reason for this is that each sacrifice of an animal speaks of the death of our Lord Jesus Christ and the judgement for our sins by God the Father on the cross. This cannot be a pleasing, pleasant or sweet odor to God; however, because it does speak of our Lord's efficacious work on our behalf, it is a tranquilizing and quieting smell. Rather than looking down upon our sins and evil nature and wanting to judge us for this, God is tranquilized and quieted by this odor. Strong #5207 BDB #629.

121.  Feminine_noun: which means a giving of rest, perhaps the making of a holiday. Strong’s #2010 BDB #629.

122.  Masculine_noun: mânôwach (-חנָמ) [pronounced maw-NOH-wahkh], which means rest, a condition or state of rest, a place of rest. Strong’s #4494 BDB #629. Ruth 3:1 1Chron. 6:31 Job 17:16

123.  Feminine_noun: m^enûwchâh (מְנוּחָה) [pronounced m^e-noo-KHAH], which means rest, resting place, place of rest, quietness. Strong’s #4496 BDB #629. The Doctrine of Tongues (Isa. 28:12) Judges 20:43 Ruth 1:9 Psalm 23:2 95:11 132:8

134.  Masculine_noun: nîyn (ןי.נ) [pronounced neen], which means offspring, posterity. The KJV always renders this son, although it only occurs three times in Scripture (Gen. 21:23 Isa. 14:22). Young renders this continuator. Always found with neked. Strong’s #5209 BDB #630. Job 18:19

135.  Verb: nûwç (נוּס) [pronounced noose], which means to flee, to flee from, to escape, to depart, to hasten quickly [away]. In the Hiphil, it means to put to flight, to cause to flee. Strong's #5127 BDB #630. [Synonym: Strong’s #1272 BDB #137]. Lev. 26:36 Joshua 7:4 8:6, 15, 20 10:16 Judges 1:6 4:15 7:21 9:21 20:32 1Sam. 4:10, 16 17:24, 51 19:8 30:17 31:1 2Sam. 1:4 Psalm 60:4 68:1 114:3

136.  Masculine_substantive: mânôwç (סנ ָמ) [pronounced maw-NOHS], which means fleeing, flight, a place of escape, refuge. Strong's #4498 BDB #631. Lev. 26:36 Job 11:20 Psalm 59:16 142:4

137.  Feminine_noun: m^enûwçâh (הָסנ מ) [pronounced m^enoo-SAW], which means flight, a place of escape, refuge. Feminine form of above. Strong’s #4498 BDB #631.

141.  Masculine_noun: man^eʿan^eʿîym (םי.ענ-ענ-מ) [pronounced mahn^e-ģahn-ĢEEM], which means sistra, castanets, rattles. An instrument which is shaken. Strong’s #4517 BDB #631. 2Sam. 6:5

142.  Verb: nûwph (ףנ) [pronounced noof], which means to move to and fro, to vacillate; to vibrate, to swing to and fro; to wave; to wander; to agitate (the hand or with the hand), to shake. The Num, Deut and Joshua references could be to the verb above; otherwise, I screwed them up. According to BDB, the technical use of this word is that priest would take an offering and lift it up toward the altar and then move it away, back to himself, as it were, to represent that this is being offered to Yahweh and Yahweh has given it back to them. So, in this verse, Aaron presents the Levites to Yahweh, but then receives them back as a present to himself and his sons. Strong's #5130 BDB #631. Num. 8:11 Deut. 27:5 Joshua 8:31 more could be done (see also Strong's #8573) Psalm 68:9

143.  Feminine_noun1: nâphâh (ה ָפ ָנ) [pronounced naw-FAW], which occurs four times in the KJV and is given four different translations: borders, coast, region (these three times nâphâh is combined with the proper noun Dor); and sieve (Isa. 30:28). BDB gives it the translation height, Gesenius, a lofty place, a sieve. Owen neatly sidesteps this and translates this as a proper noun, Naphoth-dor. Strong’s #5299 BDB #632. In Joshua 17:11 in the Hebrew, we read nâpheth (ת ∵פ ָ) [pronounced naw-FETH], and this word is found nowhere else in Scripture. Strong’s #5316 BDB #632. However, there is another Hebrew word, nâphâh (ה ָפ ָנ) [pronounced naw-FAW], found in several forms in several passages (e.g., Joshua 11:2 12:23 1Kings 4:11). Since this word is found twice already in the book of Joshua, it is not a stretch to think that it might be found again. You can see how very similar the letters tâv (ת) and hê (ה) are; given that the vowel points were added almost two thousand years later and given the fact that Joshua could be one of the more corrupt books (particularly in this second section of the book), it is likely that what we have in our Bibles is a mistake a copyist made due to working with a poor original. Strong’s #5299 BDB #632. Joshua 11:2 17:11

144.  Feminine_noun: t^enûwphâh (ה ָפנ  ׃) [pronounced t'noo-PHAWH] is obviously closely related to nûwph. Often, in the Hebrew, a noun is formed from the verb by adding an âh ending. Here, it is preceded by a t as well. This is a wave-offering for want of a better term. This is the offering which the priest brings toward the altar and then takes it away, signifying that the offering is given to God and then received back to them. Strong's #8573 BDB #632. (see also Strong's #5130) Num. 8:11

145.  Masculine_noun: which means elevation, height. Strong’s #5131 BDB #632.

146.  Feminine_noun2: which means height. Strong’s #5299 BDB #632.

147.  Feminine_noun: which means height. Strong’s #5316 BDB #632.

148.  Verb: which means to suckle, to nurse. Strong’s #5134 BDB #632.

149.  Verb: which means to give light, to shine. Strong’s #none BDB #632.

150.  Masculine_noun1: nêr (ר̤נ) [pronounced nair], which means lamp. Strong’s #5216 BDB #632. 1Sam. 3:3 Job 8:6 21:17 Psalm 132:17

151.  Masculine_proper_noun2: nêr (ר̤נ) [pronounced nair], which means lamp and is transliterated Ner. Strong’s #5369 BDB #633. 1Sam. 14:50 26:5 2Sam. 2:8

152.  Masculine_noun1: nîyr (רי.נ) [pronounced neer], which means lamp. See above. Strong’s #5216 BDB #633. Put all references above.

153.  Feminine_noun: m^enôwrâh (הָרנמ) [pronounced m^e-noh-RAW], which means lampstand. The word is transliterated menorah, and it is a lampstand with seven branches. Strong’s #4501 BDB #633. 1Sam. (3:3)

154.  Verb: which means to be sick. Strong’s #5136 BDB #633.

155.  Verb: which means to spurt, to spatter, to sprinkle. Strong’s #5137 BDB #633.

156.  Verb: which means to spring, to leap. Dubious. Strong’s #5137 BDB #633.

157.  Verb: nâzal (ל ַזָנ) [pronounced naw-ZAHL] means to drip, to distill, to flow, to trickle; to melt; to run[down]; to descend. The first word used for rivers of water in Psalm 78:15 is the masculine plural, Qal active participle of nâzal (ל ַז ָנ);, this is a word used for the waters of the Nile in Ex. 15:8. So the water is flowing out of this rock like a river. We will render it flowing waters. Strong’s #5140 BDB #633. Deut. 32:2 Judges 5:5 Psalm 78:16, 44 147:18

158.  Masculine_noun: nezem (ם∵ז∵נ) [pronounced NEH-zem], which means ring. It is always gold but not necessarily an earring. Nezem is definitely a nose ring in Gen. 24:47, a seal ring for Isa. 3:21 and possibly earrings or nose rings in most of the other passages. Strong’s #5141 BDB #633. Judges 8:24, 26

159.  Masculine_noun: which means injury, damage. Strong’s #5143 BDB #634.

160.  Verb: nâzar (ר ַז ָנ) [pronounced naw-ZAHR] and it is translated to take the vows of a Nazarite, to live as a Nazarite; and more simply to separate, to consecrate (Lev. 15:31 22:2 Num. 6:2–3, 5–6, 12 Ezek. 14:7 Hos. 9:10 Zech. 7:3). It is only found eight times in the Old Testament; it appears to simply mean to separate; to quote from Rotherham's footnote on p. 148: i.e., when abstinence becomes duty by reason of the following disabilities. Strong's #5144 BDB #634. Lev. 22:2 Num. 6:2 The Doctrine of the Nazirite (Judges 13:5)

161.  Masculine_noun: nêzer (נֵזֶר) [pronounced NAY-zer] and it appears to have three related meanings: crown, dedication or consecration, Nazariteship. This is a reference to being set apart to God, to being separated from all else, to being dedicated to holy service—the crown is that which is a symbol of the consecration and dedication. One who becomes a Nazirite is one whose life is dedicated wholly to God, although he is not born a Levite or of the seed of Aaron. Strong's #5145 BDB #634. Lev. 21:12 (see Strong’s #5139 & #5144 above) 2Sam. 1:10 Psalm 89:39 132:10

162.  Masculine_noun: nâzîyr (רי  ̣ז ָנ) [pronounced naw-ZEER] and we have seen this word thrice previously in Scripture: Gen. 49:26 Lev. 25:5, 11. Nazirite is a transliteration. In Gen. 49:26, we are given the renderings distinguished (NASB), him that was separate (KJV), who was set apart from (NRSV), and separate (Young's); and it is almost ignored, but footnoted as the one separated from in the NIV. Whereas most translations transliterate this word, the Septuagint translated it to separate (obviously, that is the English translation of the Greek). In Lev. 25:5, 11, this word is translated untrimmed vines (NASB), separated thing (Young's) undressed vine (KJV), untended vines (NIV), and unpruned vine (NRSV). The connection here is that this is like a Nazirite with unshorn hair. A related verb is nêzer (ר ∵ז ֵנ) [pronounced nay-ZER] [Strong's #4145 BDB #634], which means crown, consecration, Nazariteship. There is a connection between these various renderings. It is a crown which separates one man entirely from every other man; the crown is on the head and the Nazirites crown is his hair, which is untrimmed, like the vines during the Sabbath Year. These are words which began with a common meanings and Yahweh coined them to mean Nazirite, to become a Nazirite. Strong's #5139 BDB #634. Num. 6:2 The Doctrine of the Nazirite (Judges 13:5; given in greater detail in the doctrine)

163.  Verb: which means to be a Nazirite, to live as a Nazirite. Hiphil only. Strong’s #5144 BDB #634.

164.  Masculine_plural_noun: which means consecrated or anointed ones, princes. Strong’s #4502 BDB #634.

165.  Verb: nâchâh (נָחָה) [pronounced naw-KHAH], which means to lead, to guide. Other meanings: to lead forth, to lead back. There doesn’t appear to be a difference between the Qal and the Hiphil meanings? I was expecting this to mean to lead away into slavery, however, that is not the case. It is to lead into a path of blessing. The Hiphil is causative, indicating that God caused the Israelites to be led by Moses. This verb either has a neutral meaning (Gen. 24:26 2Kings 18:11) or it is a very positive leading (Psalm 77:20 Prov. 11:3 Isa. 58:11). It is therefore unreasonable to suppose it means to lead back to their former boundaries; or, to lead into slavery in Job 12:23; it more likely has a positive connotation. Strong’s #5148 BDB #634. The Doctrine of Fasting (Isa. 58:11) Job 12:23 Psalm 23:3 60:9 73:24 78:53 (54)

166.  Feminine_noun: nachălâh (נַחֲלָה) [pronounced nah-khuh-LAW], which means inheritance, possession, property, heritage. Strong’s #5159 BDB #635. Joshua 13:6 Judges 2:6 18:1 1Sam. 10:1 26:19 1Chron. 16:18 Job 20:29 Psalm 2:8 33:12 47:4 136:22 106:5

167.  Verb: nâchal (ל ַחָנ) [pronounced naw-KHAHL], which means, to inherit, to get (take or receive) as a possession; to possess (as wealth or glory). In the Piel, it means to cause something to be inherited, to distribute. In the Hiphil, it means to give as a possession, to cause to inherit; in the Qal it means to get or to take as a possession, to inherit. However, the Hophal is the passive of the Hiphil, the causative stem. Therefore, Job has been caused to receive [as a possession], or caused to inherit. Strong’s #5157 BDB #635. Deut. 32:8 Joshua 1:6 13:32 14:1 1Sam. 2:8 Job 7:3

168.  Feminine_noun: which meaning is unknown. Psalm 5:1. Strong’s #5155 BDB #636.

169.  Masculine_noun1: nachal (ל ַח ַנ) [pronounced NAHKH-al], which means brook, torrent. We then view this as a pleasant lazy stream of water, perhaps two to ten feet across, meandering along. Nachal refers to a torrent of rushing water through a narrow channel. Today, probably more often than then, it could be a river which is only found during the rainy season. Since a torrent or a river tends to run through a valley area, this word is also used to refer to the valley that a river might run through. Now, it is quite obvious that a brook is much different from a torrent. No one would think twice about attempting to cross over a lazy brook; however, a torrent is quite a different matter. The same word is used for both because the Kishon River could be either. Valley is a reasonable rendering in Job 21:33. Strong's #5158 BDB #636. Deut. 2:13, 16 8:7 21:4 Judges 4:7, 13 1Sam. 15:5 17:40 30:9 Job 6:15 20:17 21:33 Psalm 110:7

170.  Masculine_noun2: nachal (ל ַח ַנ) [pronounced NAHKH-al], which perhaps means palm tree. Num. 24:6. Strong’s #5158 BDB #636. Homonym for above.

171.  Verb: nâcham (נָחַם) [pronounced naw-KHAHM], which means to be sorry, to be moved to pity, to have compassion, to be sorry, to suffer grief. It is found in the Niphal and the Piel. In the masculine plural Piel it means comforters. The KJV often translates this repent (Gen. 6:7 Ex. 32:12 1Sam. 15:11), but the meaning gets lost with that Old English word. In the imperative, this should be rendered, have compassion. In Job 2:11, it should be rendered to comfort. I believe the relationship between the two apparently disparate meanings are that one refers to feeling sorry because you did something and you want to change it; and the other refers to a friend who feels sorry and you want to change him (through comforting him). In the Piel, this is consistently rendered comfort. For a little historical perspective on this word, it was generally translated repent in the Old Testament (it is also rendered to comfort). For those who still use a KJV, you will notice that it does not say the Lord repented but that it repented the Lord. Somehow, this linguistic sham was supposed to help maintain God’s immutability. However, a complete understanding of the meaning of the word (along with the concept of anthropopathisms) clears up this problem and allows us to correctly translate this verb and subject. Strong’s #5162 BDB #636. Judges 2:18 21:6 1Sam. 15:11 22:4 Job 2:11c 16:2 21:34 Psalm 23:4 90:13 106:45 110:4

172.  Masculine_noun: which means sorrow, repentance. Hosea 13:14. Strong’s #5164 BDB #637.

173.  Masculine_noun: which means comfort, compassion. Strong’s #5150 BDB #637.

174.  Feminine_noun: which means comfort. Strong’s #5165 BDB #637.

175.  Masculine_plural_noun: which means comforts, consolations, solace. Psalm 94:19 Isa. 66:11 Jer. 16:7.* Strong’s #8575 BDB #637. [see below]

176.  Feminine_plural_noun: tan^echûwmôwth (תמחנ-) [pronounced tan^e-khoo-MOHTH], which means consolation, comfort, solace. Job 15:11 21:2.* Strong’s #8575 BDB #637. [see above] Job 15:11 21:1

177.  Verb: nâchats (ץ -חָנ) [pronounced naw-KHAHTZ], which means to urge on, to press on. Supposedly equivalent to lâchats (ץ -חָל) [pronounced law-KHAHTZ] (Strong’s # BDB #). Strong’s #5169 BDB #637. 1Sam. 21:8.*

178.  Masculine_noun: which means a snorting. Strong’s #5170 BDB #637.

179.  Feminine_noun: which means a snorting. Strong’s #5170 BDB #637.

180.  Masculine_noun: which means nostril. Strong’s #5156 BDB #638.

181.  Masculine_noun1: nâchâsh (נָחָש) [pronounced naw-KHAWSH], which means serpent. Strong’s #5175 BDB #638. Lev. (19:26) Num. 21:6 1Sam. (11:1)

182.  Masculine_proper_noun2: Nâchâsh (נָחָש) [pronounced naw-KHAWSH], which means serpent and is transliterated Nahash. According to Gnana Robinson, his name means serpent in the Sanscrit as well. Strong’s #5176 BDB #638. 1Sam. 11:1 2Sam. 10:2

183.  Verb: nâchash (נָחַש) [pronounced naw-KHAHSH], which means to practice divination, to divine; to communicate with demons; to whisper. The word for serpent is nâchâsh (נָחָש) [pronounced naw-KHAWSH] and the word for practicing divination is nâchash (נָחַש) [pronounced naw-KHAHSH], whose root word means to whisper, and what is involved is casting spells, communicating with demons, and diving information which is not ours to divine. We have already seen this word several times in Gen. 30:27 44:5, 15; and the word for serpent goes back, of course, to Gen. 3:1–2, 4. The verb is first used by Laban, which told him that he had been blessed because of Jacob. In Gen. 44, we find that this is a term used by Joseph to indicate that he knew a stolen cup was in the saddle of Benjamin. Therefore, this certainly means searching for those things which are hidden from the naked eye through demonic means. It is an onomatopoetic word—the sound of the word is an imitation of the sound of the snake and the sound of the one whispering. Serpent = Strong's #5175 Practice divination = Strong's #5172 BDB #638. Lev. 19:26 Num. (21:6)

184.  Masculine_noun: which means divination, enchantment. Strong’s #5173 BDB #638.

185.  Feminine_noun: n^echesheth (ת∵שֹחנ) [pronounced n^e-KHOH-sheth], which simply means copper, bronze. Owen lists the exact same spellings as both fem. and masc. BDB seems to do the same. I am going with feminine for all the th endings. Strong’s #5178 BDB #638. Judges 16:21 1Sam. 17:5, 38 2Sam. 3:34 8:8 1Chron. 15:19

186.  Adjective: which means of bronze. Strong’s #5153 BDB #639.

187.  Feminine_noun: n^echûwshâh (הָשחנ) [pronounced n^e-khoo-SHAW], which means copper, bronze. Strong’s #5154 BDB #639. Job 20:24

188.  Feminine_noun2: which means lust, harlotry. Strong’s #5178 BDB #639.

189.  Verb: nâchath (ת -חָנ) [pronounced naw-KHAHTH], which means to go down, to descend. Strong’s #5181 BDB #639. Job 21:13

190.  Masculine_noun2: nachath (ת-ח-נ) [pronounced NAH-khahth], which means descent. Strong’s #5183 BDB #639.

191.  Adjective: which means descending. Strong’s #5185 BDB #639.

192.  Masculine proper noun3: nachath (ת-ח-נ) [pronounced NAH-khahth], which means descent. Strong’s #5184 BDB #639. 1Chron. 6:25–27

193.  Verb: nâţâh (נָטָה) [pronounced naw-TAWH], which means to stretch out, to spread out, to bow, to extend. It means ➊ to stretch out, to extend, to stretch, to unfold, to spread something out (e.g., the flocks over the land); ➋to incline, to bow; ➌ to turn, to turn away, to turn (to one’s side); ➍ to go away. I don’t have much confidence in that last meaning. This verb is often used of God stretching forth His Own hand against man (Isa. 23:11 Ezek. 6:14); however, it can also speak of knowledge stretching out its hand to man (Prov. 1:24). This can also be used in a neutral way (Isa. 43:12 Jer. 10:12). The key appears to be the preposition which follows—and in this context (Job 15:25), it is unto and not against. The Hiphil meanins are not substantially different from the Qal. It simply means to cause to turn aside. We might modernize the term somewhat to mean to derail. Strong’s #5186 BDB #639. Joshua 8:18 24:23 Judges 4:11 9:3 16:30 19:8 1Sam. 8:3 14:7 (16:11) 2Sam. 2:19, 21 3:27 6:10 1Chron. 15:1 16:1 Job 15:25, 29 Psalm 44:18 73:2 104:2 136:12 Zech. 12:1

194.  Adverb: which means downwards. Strong’s #4295 BDB #641.

195.  Masculine_noun: maţţeh (ה ∵ ַמ) [pronounced mah-TEH], which means staff, branch, tribe. The connection is obvious—a staff is made from a branch and the tribe is like the branch from a tree. Strong’s #4294 BDB #641. (Synonym: Strong’s #7626 BDB #986) Joshua 14:1 1Sam. 14:27 1Chron. 12:31 Psalm 105:16 110:2

196.  Feminine_noun: miţţâh (הָ ̣מ) [pronounced mit-TAW], which means couch, bed. Strong’s #4296 BDB #641. 1Sam. 19:13 28:23 2Sam. 3:31

197.  Feminine_noun: which means a spreading, an outspreading. Strong’s #4298 BDB #642.

198.  Masculine_noun: which means that which is perverted. Strong’s #4297 BDB #642.

199.  Verb: which means to lift, to bear, to carry. Strong’s #5190 BDB #642.

200.  Masculine_noun: which means burden, weight. Strong’s #5192 BDB #642.

201.  Adjective: laden. Strong’s #5187 BDB #642.

202.  Verb: nâţaʿ (נָטַע) [pronounced naw-TAHĢ] and it generally means to set upright; to plant; to place; to fix, to fasten [with a nail]; to pitch [a tent], to set up; figuratively to establish. However, it also means, figuratively, to establish. (See Ex. 15:17 Deut. 11:15 Ezra 36:36 Psalm 44:3) We use it in a similar fashion today. “Young man, let’s just plant yourself right there in that chair until I determine what to do with you.” Strong’s #5193 BDB #642. Deut. 16:21 2Sam. 7:10 Psalm 44:2

203.  Masculine_noun: What it is like is a plantation, a planting. Strong’s #5194 BDB #642. Job 14:9

204.  Masculine_noun: which means a plant. Strong’s #5195 BDB #642.

205.  Masculine_noun: which means a place of planting, the act of planting. Strong’s #4302 BDB #642.

206.  Verb: nâţaph (ף-טָנ) [pronounced naw-TAHF], which means to drop, to fall in drops, to drip. Strong’s #5197 BDB #642. Judges 5:4 Psalm 68:8

207.  Masculine_noun: which means drop. Strong’s #5198 BDB #643.

208.  Masculine_noun: which means an odoriferous gum. Strong’s #5198 BDB #643.

209.  Feminine_noun: The word translated pendants is found only in Judges 8:26 and in Isa. 3:19*. It is closely related to the verb for drop or drip (Strong’s #5197 BDB #642), and it means drop. They are always found in the plural, which doesn’t mean much, given the context, but Gesenius insists they mean earrings made out of pearls (which looks like drops). This makes more sense than pendant. Barnes concurs. Strong’s #5188 BDB #643. Judges 8:26

210.  Proper_noun_location: which means a dropping, a dripping; and is transliterated . Strong’s #5199

211.  Gentilic_adjective: which is transliterated Neţophathite. Strong’s #5200 BDB #643. BDB #643.

212.  Verb: nâţar (ר-טָנ) [pronounced naw-TAHR], which means to keep, to maintain; to guard. Strong’s #5201 BDB #643. Psalm 103:9

213.  Verb: nâţash (ש-טָנ) [pronounced naw-TAHSH], which means to leave, to forsake, to permit. Gesenius offers the meaning to spread out, to disperse, primarily for this passage (1Sam. 4:2), although it does appear as though the Niphal stem means to spread out in some passages (e.g., Judges 15:9 2Sam. 5:18 Isa. 16:8). To allow to: to leave [forsake], to let go of, to let alone in the sense of to disperse, to be spread out, to let run wild Gordon mentions the alternatives of clashed, fluctuated, deployed. A lengthy discussion of its alternate meaning to be found in 1Sam. 4:2. Strong’s #5203 BDB #643. Judges 6:13 1Sam. 4:2 10:2 12:22 17:20 30:16 2Sam. 5:18

214.  Feminine_noun: maţţârâh (הָרָ-מ) [pronounced maht-taw-RAW], which means a guard, ward, prison; a target, a mark. It appears as though Jeremiah and Nehemiah used this noun consistently for prison or prison gate while it is found twice used as a target in Job and 1Samuel. Strong’s #4307 BDB #643. 1Sam. 20:20 Job 16:12b–13

215.  Verb: nâţash (ש -טָנ) [pronounced naw-TAHSH], which means to leave, to forsake, to permit. Strong’s #5203 BDB #643. 1Sam. 10:2

216.  Feminine_noun: which means a twig, a tendril of vine. Strong’s #5189 BDB #644.

217.  Adjective: which means raw [used of flesh?]. Strong’s #4994 BDB #644.

218.  Noun location: Nineveh. Strong’s #5210 BDB #644.

219.  Proper_noun: 1^st month. Strong’s #5212 BDB #644.

220.  Verb1: which means to break up, to freshly till. Strong’s #5214 BDB #644.

221.  Masculine_noun2: which means tillable, untilled, fallow ground. Strong’s #5215 BDB #644.

222.  Masculine_noun: mânôwr (רנָמ) [pronounced maw-NOHR], which means beam, probably round. Strong’s #4500 BDB #644. 1Sam. 17:7

223.  Verb: which means to strike, to scourge. Strong’s #5217 BDB #644.

224.  Adjective: which means stricken, scourged. Strong’s #5218 BDB #644.

225.  Feminine_noun: which means spice, tragaeanth gum. Strong’s #5219 BDB #644.

226.  Masculine_noun: neked (ד∵כ∵נ) [pronounced NEH-kehd], which means progeny, posterity. Bullinger says that it should be grandson. It is found in the same three passages as nîyn. Strong’s #5220 BDB #645. Job 18:19

227.  Verb: nâkâh (נָכָה) [pronounced naw-KAWH], which means to smite, to assault, to hit, to strike. Because nâkâch is not found in the Qal, the Hiphil does not necessarily connote causative action. It is often translated smite in the KJV (a very good rendering, by the way); but in more modern language, it means strike, assault, hit. Often there are fatal repercussions; when the soul is struck, this is equivalent to intentional manslaughter. In the Hophal, it means to receive a blow, to be wounded, to be beaten, to be fatally wounded, to be killed, to be slain, to be attacked and captured, to be struck with a disease. Strong #5221 BDB #645. Lev. 24:17 Num. 35:16 Deut. 27:24 Joshua 7:3 8:21, 24 10:10, 20 12:1 20:3 Judges 1:4, 10, 12 15:15 20:39 1Sam. 2:14 4:2, 8 5:6, 9, 12 6:19 11:11 13:3 14:14 15:3 17:9 18:6, 11 19:5, 8 20:33 22:19 23:2 24:5 26:8 27:9 29:5 30:1 31:2 2Sam. 1:1 5:8 8:1 Job 2:7 13:4 16:10 Psalm 105:33 136:10

228.  Adjective: nâkeh (נָכֶה) [pronounced naw-KEH], which means stricken; physically stricken: crippled, lame, maimed; figuratively stricken: contrite, dejected. Strong’s #5223 BDB #656. 2Sam. 4:4 9:3

229.  Adjective: which means stricken ones. Plural of above; probably a scribal error. Strong’s #5222 BDB #645.

230.  Masculine_noun: which means a blow. Strong’s #4347? BDB #645.

231.  Feminine_singular_noun: makkâh (ה ָ ַמ) [pronounced mahk-KAW], which means a blow, a wounding, a wound, a slaughter, a beating, a scourging. The KJV translates the word makkâh (ה ָ ַמ) [pronounced mahk-KAWH] as plague, slaughter, stroke, or wounds. However, this is not the word found in the book of Exodus; in fact, its first use is in Lev. 26:21. The only English words which I can find which seem to be apt are mauling, scourging, beating, striking, striking down. However, I cannot seem to lay hold of a word which would consistently work for Lev. 26:21 Num. 11:33 Deut. 25:3 Joshua 10:10 and Esther 9:5. The word slaughter works great in this passage and many others—it just does not work consistently. The verbal cognate of makkâh is fairly consistently translated smite in the Authorized version, although I have usually translated it strike, updating the word ever so slightly. Strong’s #4347 BDB #646. Num. 11:33 Deut. 28:59 29:22 Joshua 10:10 1Sam. 4:8, 10 6:19 14:14 19:8 23:5

232.  Masculine_proper_noun: transliterated Necho. King of Egypt. Strong’s #5224 BDB #647.

233.  Masculine_proper_noun: which means ; transliterated . See Strong’s #5225 BDB #467. Strong’s #3592,5225 BDB #647.

234.  Verb: which means to be in front of. Strong’s #none BDB #647.

235.  Substantive (preposition/adverb): nôkach (ח-כֹנ) [pronounced NOH-kahkh], which means front, in front of, opposite to, towards the front of, on behalf of. In this Judges 18:6, this word is rendered variously as before, under the eye of, over-against; some translators render this in such a way as to completely obfuscate their translation of this word. Strong’s #5227 (#5226) BDB #647. Judges 18:6

236.  Adjective/substantive: which means straight, right, straightness. Strong’s #5228–5229 BDB #647.

237.  Verb: nâkal (לַכָנ) [pronounced naw-KHAHL], which means to act craftily, to act in a deceitful or fraudulent manner. BDB gives its meanings as to be crafty, deceitful, knavish; it simply means to conspire [against]. Barnes gives this as dealing with someone in a fraudulent or deceitful manner. Strong’s #5230 BDB #647. Psalm 105:25

238.  Masculine_noun: which means wiliness, craft, knavery. See above and revise meanings. Strong’s #5231 BDB #647.

239.  Masculine_noun: which means knave. See verb above; possibly conspirator, a fraud, a deceitful person. Strong’s #3596 BDB #647.

240.  Plural_masculine_noun: which means riches, treasures. Strong’s #5233 BDB #647.

241.  Verb1: nâkar (רַכָנ) [pronounced naw-KAHR], which means to regard, to recognize, to acknowledge. This word is not found in the Qal. In the Hiphil, it means to contemplate, to behold, to recognize, to acknowledge, to be acquainted with, to know, to know how, to care for. Some translators render it discern, distinguish. This word may bear some serious research. Strong’s #5234 BDB #647. [This word is a homonym with Strong’s #5234 BDB #649]. Judges 18:3 Ruth 2:10, 19a 3:14 2Sam. 3:36 Job 2:12 4:16 7:10 21:29 26:17 Psalm 103:16 142:4

242.  Feminine_noun: which means a look, an expression. Strong’s #1971 BDB #648.

246.  Adjective: nâk^erîy (י ̣ר  ׃כ ָנ) [pronounced nawck^e-REE], and it means foreign, alien. Strong’s #5237 BDB #648. Ruth 2:10 Job 19:15 Psalm 81:9

247.  Verb2: nâkar (ר ַכ ָנ) [pronounced naw-KAHR] and it means misconstrue, misinterpret [the situation]. Strong’s #5234 BDB #649. [This word is a homonym with Strong’s #5234 BDB #647]. Deut. 32:27 1Sam. 23:7

248.  Feminine_noun: which means treasure. Strong’s #5238 BDB #649.

249.  Verb: which means to obtain, to attain. Strong’s #5239 BDB #649.

250.  Masculine_noun: which means gain, acquisition. Job 15:29.* Strong’s #4512 BDB #649. Job 15:29

251.  Feminine noun unit: which means . Strong’s #5244 BDB #649.

252.  Masculine_noun: which means leopard. Strong’s #5246 BDB #649.

254.  Masculine_proper_noun: which means and is transliterated Namesthei. Strong’s #5250 BDB #650.

255.  Verb: nâçag (ג-סָנ) [pronounced naw-SAHG], which means to depart (Qal); to remove (Hiphil); to be turned away (Hophal). Found twice in Deuteronomy, once in Proverbs and in the prophets. BDB lists this as equivalent to Strong's #5472 BDB #690. However, this belongs here, as Strong's #5253 BDB #650.

256.  Verb: nâçâh (נָסָה) [pronounced naw-SAWH], a word which means to test, to try. This is a great word whose meaning is determined by the subject and the object. Our English equivalent is quite similar. As a teacher, I test my students; this is perfectly legitimate. However, when my students test me, this is something entirely different. God tested this man of grace at Massah. However, their testing of Him was uncalled for. “You will not put Y^ehowah your God to the test, as you tested at Massah.” (Deut. 6:16). The Piel perfect of nâçâh (ה ָס ָנ) [pronounced naw-SAW], which means to test, to try, to attempt, to try to do a thing. Strong’s #5254 BDB #650. Deut. 33:8 Judges 2:22 3:4 1Sam. 17:39 Job 4:2 Psalm 95:8 106:14

257.  Noun: Maççâh (ה ָ ַמ) [pronounced mahs-SAW], and it means trial, testing; this word is used relatively few times in the Old Testament (9 times), and most of those times it is a proper noun (Ex. 17:7 Deut. 6:16 9:22). Strong’s #4531 and 4532 BDB #650. and 588 Job 9:23

258.  Proper_noun_location: which means testing, trial; and is transliterated Massah. Strong’s #4532 BDB #650.

259.  Verb: nâçach (ח -סָנ) [pronounced naw-SACHKH], which means to pull out, to tear away; to drive into exile. Strong’s #5255 BDB #650. Psalm 52:5

260.  Verb: nâçak^e ( -סָנ) [pronounced naw-SAHK], which means to pour, to pour out, to make a libation; to cast [metal images]; to anoint [a king]. Strong’s #5258 BDB #650. Psalm 2:6

261.  Verb: mâlal (ל ַל ָמ) [pronounced maw-LAHL], which appears to be three different words in the Hebrew. This verb is used five times to mean utter, speak (Gen. 21:7 Job 8:2 33:3 Psalm 106:2 Prov. 6:13*). BDB allows for the passage in Prov. 6:13 to mean scrape, rub. Strong’s #4448 BDB #576. Job 8:2. BDB gives a third meaning languish, wither, fade; but cut off seems to be a better rendering (Gen. 17:11 Job 14:2 18:16 24:24 Prov. 37:2*). BDB lists the latter spelling as the same; the New Englishman’s Concordance and Strong spell it as nâmal (ל ַמ ָנ) [pronounced naw-MAHL]. Strong’s #5243 BDB #576. Psalm 90:6 Find this under the m’s—it will be there in full

262.  Masculine_noun: which means a drink offering; molten images. Strong’s #5262 BDB #651.

263.  Masculine_noun: which means libation, wine of a drink offering; a molten image. Strong’s #5257 BDB #651.

264.  Feminine_noun: maççêkâh (מַסֵּכָה) [pronounced mahs-say-KAW], which means molten metal, metal image, molten image, libation. The NIV Study Bible suggests that this is a metal cast idol, with a cheaper metal as the bulk of the object, coated with silver. Now it appears as though there is only one idol which is being made, as the end of v. 4 is in the masculine singular. However, as we have seen, the end of v. 4 probably belongs at the end of v. 3, which would solve this problem. Therefore we would be looking at two different idols. In Judges 18:14, it also appears as though they are two different images. Strong’s #4541 BDB #651. [Also, see Strong’s #6459 BDB #820]. If this word seems familiar to you, we covered the word in the previous chapter. Both BDB and the New Englishman’s Hebrew Concordance to the Old Testament treat them as separate words. Gesenius treats it as one word with two divergent meanings. Notice that this is identical to the word below. Judges 17:3 18:14 Psalm 106:19

265.  Verb2: which means to weave. Strong’s #5259 BDB #651.

266.  Feminine_noun: which means woven stuff, web; a covering. Identical to noun above. Strong’s #4541 BDB #651.

267.  Feminine_noun: maççêkâh maççêkâh (הָכ̤-מ) [pronounced mahs-say-KAW], which means weaving, seb, that which has been woven, some woven [used as a covering]. Strong’s #4541 BDB #651. This is found only in Isa. 25:7 28:20 (and maybe in Isa. 30:1). In this verse, the word is maççâketh (ת∵כָ-מ) [pronounced mahs-SAW-keth], which is given as a weaving of unfinished cloth. Strong’s #4545 BDB #651. Whereas, these could be different words, their primary difference is the last letter and the vowel points (added centuries after Scripture was written). We are probably dealing here with some partially woven cloth which is woven in with Samson’s hair (we get this more from v. 14 than this verse). Judges 16:13b

268.  Verb3: which means to set, to install. Strong’s #5258 BDB #651.

269.  Masculine_noun: nâcîyk^e (י.סָנ) [pronounced naw-SEEK^e], which could be rendered prince, although this is not the normal word that we use for prince (it is found only in Deut. 32:38 Joshua 13:21 Psalm 83:11 Ezek. 32:30 Daniel 11:8 Micah 5:4). It is that first passage which is troubling, as it is often rendered drink-offering. In the book of Daniel, it is rendered molten image. The key is the verb, which, although BDB says that it means to set, to install; it really means to appoint and the noun means appointed one. Strong’s #5257 BDB #651. [Synonym: Strong’s #5387 BDB #672]. Deut. 32:38 Joshua 13:21 Psalm 83:11

270.  Verb: nâçaç (נָסַס) [pronounced naw-SAHÇ], which means to be lifted up, to be displayed, to be high, to be conspicuous. Strong’s #5264 BDB #651. Psalm 60:4

271.  Masculine_noun: nêç (נֵס) [pronounced nace], which means banner, flag, standard, ensign, guide-on; pole, column; signal, sign. When Moses took the brass serpent and put it atop a pole, that pole was a nêç (Num. 21:8–9). We first encountered this word in Ex. 17:15 where it means Y^ehowah my banner. Isaiah used this word most often (Isa. 5:26 11:10, 12 13:2 18:3 Jer. 4:6, 21 50:2 51:12 etc.). I would think that Thieme would translate this a guide-on. Strong's #5251 BDB #651. Num. 26:10 Psalm 60:4

272.  Verb: nâçaʿ (ע ַסָנ) [pronounced naw-SAHĢ], which means to journey, to depart. It denotes the pulling up the stakes of a tent. In Judges 16:14, Samson is merely pulling the pin out of his braided hair. The verb used in Psalm 78:26 is one which denotes pulling up the stakes of a tent and moving out. This is in the Hiphil stem, so the winds are caused to pull up stakes and journey through the heavens. In the Hiphil stem, this means to guide, to lead, to cause to set out. So the winds are caused to pull up stakes and journey through the heavens. In the Niphal, it means to pluck up, to remove. Strong’s #5265 BDB #652. Joshua 3:1, 3 Judges 16:3, 14 18:11 Job 4:21 19:10 Psalm 78:26, 52

273.  Masculine_noun: maçça‛ (ע ַ ַמ) [pronounced mahs-SAH] means travels, journeys, journeyings. BDB describes it as the pulling up (of the tent and tent spikes), breaking camp and setting out. You certainly recognize the familia term Mecca. Strong's #4550 BDB #652. Num. 33:1

274.  Masculine_noun1: which means a quarry, a quarrying. Strong’s #4551 BDB #652.

275.  Verb: which means to throw, to puncture, to wound. Strong’s #none BDB #652.

276.  Masculine_noun2: which means missile, dart. Strong’s #4551 BDB #652.

277.  Masculine_proper_noun: which means Assyrian god and is transliterated . Strong’s #5268 BDB #652.

278.  Proper_noun_location: which means ; and is transliterated . Strong’s #5272 BDB #652.

279.  Verb: nâʿal (לַעָנ) [pronounced naw-AHL or naw-GAHL], which means to bar, bolt or lock. Strong’s #5274 BDB #653. Judges 3:23–24

280.  Feminine_noun: naʿal (נַעַל) [pronounced NAH-ģahl], which means sandal, shoe; a shoe thong, a shoe latchet; a pair of shoes; metaphorically for something of little value. Strong’s #5275 BDB #653. Psalm 60:8

281.  Verb: which means to furnish with sandals, to give one shoes. Strong’s #5274 BDB #653.

282.  Masculine_noun: which means bolt, lock. Strong’s #4514 BDB #653.

283.  Masculine_noun: The word translated sandels, shoes, bars is a word found only once in the Old Testament. The core letters of this word (נ ע ל) match the core letters of the word for sandal; however, the word for bolt begins with מ , as does this word; therefore, this is most likely a house door bolt. Furthermore, there were no iron or brass fastenings on the shoes or sandals of the people of that time. As Keil and Delitzsch point out, even Goliath, who was clothed from head to foot in brass and iron, did not have brass or iron shoes. Only the Romans later had nails in the soles of their shoes. Strong’s #4515 BDB #653. Deut. 33:25

284.  Verb: nâʿêm (ם̤עָנ) [pronounced naw-ĢAME], which means to be pleasant, to be delightful, to be attractive. Strong’s #5276 BDB #653. Check Gesenius; do not add too many more definitions. 2Sam. 1:26

285.  Masculine_noun: nôʿam (ם ַעֹנ) [pronounced NOH-ģahm] and it is defined in BDB as pleasantness, delightfulness. The former strikes me as being too meaningless. The KJV primarily goes with beauty (Palm 27:4 90:17 Zech. 11:7, 10) or some form of pleasantness (Prov. 3:17 15:26 16:24). Let me temporarily go with delightfulness until a better rendering strikes me. Strong’s #5278 BDB #653. Psalm 90:17

286.  Masculine_proper_noun: which means pleasant, delight and is transliterated . Son of Caleb. Strong’s #5277 BDB #653.

287.  Adjective: nâʿîym (םי.עָנ) [pronounced naw-GEEM], which means pleasant, agreeable, delightful; pleasures; generous. Strong’s #5273 BDB #653. 2Sam. 1:23 Psalm 133:1 147:1

288.  Feminine_proper_noun: which means pleasant, delightful and is transliterated . Twin sister of Tubal Cain. Strong’s #5279 BDB #653.

289.  Masculine_noun1: which means pleasantness. Strong’s #5282 BDB #654.
