Fred,
Can you please, please, please explain the logic that you use to jump to your conclusion here? You state the issue, then, without any explanation, you state your answer as a proven matter of fact. That answer may be clear to you, but it still looks like simply a belief statement to me. And even if it is true (although it flies in the face of personal experience), why is it significant?

The issue ultimately is not whether the hand exists, but whether any meaningful comprehension of the hand can be had in a vacuum, and absent reference to the entire body. And the answer to that question, in the context of the MT לשן קדש, .... is .... no. The pieces and parts of the language, including homonyms and word play, require reference to the whole and to each other, for meaningful understanding of the parts. _______________________________________________ b-hebrew mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ibiblio.org/mailman/listinfo/b-hebrew
