Pere and others, Getting a little tired of being ignored on this list.
As I told Mike, B'\aD means the following: 1 - for the sake of, on the behalf of (Gn20:7)(Ex8:24;32:30)(Lv9:7)(SmII10:12)(Jr11:14)(Ps138:8)(Jb2:4) 2 - through (Gn26:8)(Js2:15)(Jd5:28)(SmI4:18;19:12)(KgII1:2)(Pr6:26)(Jb22:13) 3 - all the way over, beyond (SmII20:21) 4 - enclose around (SmI1:6) behind.. (Gn7:16)(Jd3:23;9:51)(KgII4:4,33)(Is26:20)(Ss4:Mike1) 5 - in the meantime (Gn20:18) I further stated that there is no B'\aDae, just B'\aD and \adae (yes, I did not clearly state the suffixed form stated here by Pere) I also stated: "there is no way for us to know if it would have made any sense to a Biblical Hebrew speaker. Perhaps it was perfectly sound Biblical Hebrew. Perhaps, it would make sense but feel awkward to them. Perhaps it would mean to them something different. Perhaps it would mean nothing to them at all." a bit nicer than Karl's "Gibberish" - allow me to remind you Karl, "Neither you, nor I, nor anyone on this list speak Biblical Hebrew. We were not there and we are not native!" And lastly, just because something stated is not a full sentence, does not mean that it means nothing - phrases, even tiny prepositional phrases still mean something. They might not tell us much but the absence of other parts of speech do not make them gibberish.

But... since Mike's main trouble seems to be the word B'DY, we might have replied that in biblical use this word is or means "for me".(for instance the last word in Ex 8:24). And also "behind me" as in Jon 2:7. And that it appears nine times in the Bible. Namely, we might have tried to make our list interesting for Mike instead of trying, indirectly, to expel him from it.
