Introduction God considers human deeds—because God made the human. God’s nacham is not unlike the processes of formal evaluations or hearings. God considered Saul’s reign as king and determined to fire him from the job. But the psalmists positively request God’s consideration of the nation’s plights.

Hundreds of words of ancient Hebrew remain uncertain in meaning. Further, it is often difficult to gauge where knowledge ends and traditional conjectures take over. When examined analytically, some of the traditions prove rational, but others do not; some are used with consistency, and others are not. Word Harvest offers some results coming from dynamic analyses of obscure words and/or words hidden behind inconsistent traditions. Three examples are but briefly summarized below:

God does not reconsider a determined matter, but God will consider a people who repent under a punishment. This is like a parole hearing. A parole board does not ‘repent,’ ‘regret,’ ‘change their mind,’ or become ‘sorry.’ Nor do they ‘comfort themselves.’ All of these are off track. A parole board considers only the prisoner’s recent behavior in the context of the ongoing sentence, which may then be lightened in some way.

Just consider

The verb nacham (naw-kham′) has a bewildering variety of renderings, including: gave comfort, panted, sighed, was sorry, moaned, regretted, relented, repented, changed his mind, and comforted himself. These states of human mind and mood—often applied to God (!)—fail to define or outline any foundational meaning for nacham. The meanings are disparate, even mutually contradictory. Further, they vary wildly from one bible version to another.

There is a problem here.

The act of considering can explain all scriptural cases of nacham. By this, some traditions are affirmed and others are rejected. Traditions can be wrong.

Work versus rest

It was by a tradition that Jesus was accused of violating the law of the Sabbath-day. In this tradition, the verb shabath is effectively defined as notdoing work (‘cease and desist’). This is called “resting,” but only 10% of the cases of shabath are actually translated as an act of resting (or ‘observing’ Sabbath). Far more frequently, shabath cases involve mass annihilations!

Analysis of the dynamic elements associated with nacham indicates that it must be a neutral process that can generate good or bad results. The results roughly correspond with the various states perceived by literary interpreters.

The dynamic that satisfies the given requirements is that of considering.

Jesus openly testified to “working” on the Sabbath (Jn. 5:17). Therefore, Christianity requires a work-based theory of shabath. Until now, none has been put forth. For a physicist, Jesus’ assertion of work offers a more tenable dynamic than can be found in traditions of not-doing. Therefore, here you can

Cases perceived as ‘giving comfort’ are from the act of considering mourners.

All such mentioned consideration for mourners is sympathetic, but other considerations can be negative in implication or result: Esau considered killing his brother.

learn what kinds of work are logically defined by the action verb shabath.

Returning to the vague qualifiers (no, nothing, but, only, etc.) these are found to be absorbing direct references to a class of people called ‘ankles’ (anklehighs). These ‘ankle-highs’ have been made poor or marginalized by various social or political circumstances.

‘Ends’ of the earth

Western ‘thinkers’ prefer absolutes.

And they give us 39 different Hebrew words that sometimes appear as an “end” of some kind! One of these words derives from the verb aaphis (aw-face′), a verb said to indicate the action of a total failing or final ending.

The problem is that this cornered verb cannot reach all the dimensions of its own derived noun.

Returning to the verb form, the action of ‘ankling’ a person means to ‘bring him low,’ down to ankle-high. This can be by impoverishment, for example, or by derisive language, or by any means that ‘cuts the person down to size.’

In my concordance dictionary, the noun ehphis is given four different classes of meaning: (1) ends (of the earth); (2) no, nothing; (3) however, but, only, yet; (4) an extremity of the body, which in context wades through water.

Tradition erred by imagining a lowly thing as nothing, thereby overshooting the real dynamic. ‘Ankling’ explains all the cases from the same foundation of meaning. So a pair of ankles replaces tradition’s ten toes of ‘extremities.’ It is a lowly (ankle-high) improvement, but a real one.

By this, a noun for the “ends” of the earth often becomes a vague part of speech that is absorbed as a negation or a twist of exception. In some cases, the word just vanishes. Then there is the “extremity of the body” that “wades through water.” For this, interpreters agree that Ezekiel was wading in anklehigh water. Tradition accepts this as an unexplained oddity of meaning, but the concrete physical dynamics demand a foundationally relevant explanation.

You evaluate

Nearly eighty dynamic verbs and their grammatical relatives are presented here with consistent basic meanings.

Most of the meanings have very strong analytical support. Some, however, are merely ‘likely’ to be correct, and a few are raw guesses of my own. Some can be improved on. Some are half-wrong.

The assembled cases enable the reader to evaluate (consider). They also enable the challenger to observe the terrain of the course. Does a proposed meaning consistently ‘work’? Does it provide a basic, foundational concept that yields the best explanation for every case? If not, we are still looking, for God’s Messengers have not authored any confusion. Glory be to God.

While ankles could seem existentially ‘extreme,’ they are more directly just low. Ankles are not very high, even though they are above zero. Starting with the physicality of wading, the lowly term ‘ankle-high’ unlocks all the cases. The “ends” of the earth are the coastal edges/ margins of the land: the places where the land is but ankle-high above the water.
