Footnotes
| 917 | Strong’s #7300, rud. To wander restlessly, roam. Strong’s says the primitive root is to tramp about. Only here and in Psalm 55:3 is it given in the Hiphil causative form. The scholars aren’t sure of the exact meaning in the Hiphil and so speculate to shew restlessness. Cain, Ishmael, and now Prepared have something strikingly in common. |
