Subject: Re: [b-hebrew] Gen 16:12 Hand Against?


The entry for "Yado bakol" at
http://www.learnhebrew.org.il/print/2010/july5.htm is strangely ironic.
 
It claims that the etymology comes from Genesis 16:12 which (it asserts) was
a "definitely negative" meaning.
 
Then it goes on to say that "in recent years it has turned semi-positive".
 
Alas, what did the Genesis original communicate to Hagar!
