In my Humble opinion the single-consonant Hebrew root L signifies loftiness, elevation (or elongation). Every Hebrew root containing L contains reference to this basic concept.
Isaac Fried, Boston University > The two little letters )L combined in this manner, enjoy a wide > horizontal & vertical range of meaning, depending on context; presence or absence of vowels; plural or singular; differing shades pronunciation; etc. Witness strong's numbers 352, 408, 410, 411, 413, 414, 421, 422, 423, 424, 428, 430, 433. Does not this word flexibility imply the two halves of the language; the one literal; the other figurative? > regards, > > fred burlingame > _______________________________________________ > b-hebrew mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.ibiblio.org/mailman/listinfo/b-hebrew > _______________________________________________ b-hebrew mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ibiblio.org/mailman/listinfo/b-hebrew
