Hebrew wordlink #103846

Key: khaki:verbs.
Bold in each verse marks the word or words linked to that example’s source word, where an alignment is available.
Note: Automatic aligning of the OET-RV to the LV is done by some temporary software, hence the RV alignments are incomplete (and may occasionally be wrong). An unbolded RV line may have no alignment for this word. See the OET key for other text colours and marks.

OET-LV: 11 And_he/it _was when_fled_they from_face/in _front _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) they were_at_the _descent _of Bēyt Ḩōrōn and_YHWH he _threw on_them stones large from the_heavens to ˊAzēqāh and_they _died were_many those_who they _died by_the _stones _of the _hail more_than_those_whom the _people _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) they _killed with_sword. (JOS 10:11)

OET-RV: 11 As they fled from the Israelis on the slope down from Beyt -Horon heading towards Azekah, Yahweh hurled large hailstones down on them from the sky and they died—actually more of them died from the hail than were killed with swords by the Israelis. (JOS 10:11)

Note: These word pages enable you to click through to the Open Scriptures Hebrew Bible (OSHB) that the Open English Translation Old Testament is translated from. The OSHB is based on the Westminster Leningrad Codex (WLC). (We are still searching for a digitized facsimile of the Leningradensis manuscript that we can easily link to. See this list and this archive for now.) This is all part of the commitment of the Open English Translation team to be transparent about all levels of the Bible translation process right back to the original manuscripts.

The word form ‘מֵאֲשֶׁר’ (Morphology=R PoS=preposition

The various word forms of the root word (lemma) ‘Lemmas=‘מִן’, ‘אֲשֶׁר’’ have 12 different glosses: ‘because,’, ‘because,that’, ‘from,[the_one]_who’, ‘from,[the_things]_which’, ‘from,that’, ‘from,where’, ‘from_[that],which’, ‘from_[those],who’, ‘more,than_[those]_who’, ‘more,than_[those]_whom’, ‘more,than_that’, ‘some,of_[that]_which’.
