Footnotes

1304

Strong’s #8439, Towla. From #8438, tola, 1) worm, only plural תּוֺלָעִים in stale manna Exodus 16:20 (P). 2) scarlet stuff, absolute singular תּוֺלָ Isaiah 1:18 (in sim "" שָׁנִים; opposed to צֶמֶר); token of luxury Lamentations 4:5.

1305

Strong’s #3102, Yob יוֹב. The spelling is different from Iyyob אִיּוֹב (Book of Job) in that it is missing the aleph א. See #347. Iyyob means enemy, hated. comes from ayab (#340) which means to be hated/hostile to. Yob has been speculated to be an erroneous transcription for Yobab, he shall return (#3437).

1306

Strong’s #8110. Shimron. Or Watch-mountain. From shamar, to guard. See Gesenius.
