Genesis 15:5

And he is causing to go out אֶת-him the Outside-her,559 and is saying, `Look, now, Dual-Heavens-her,560 and count the Round-ones, if you are able to record561 אֶת-them.` And he is saying to-himself, `Thus he is becoming your seed.`


Footnote:

561

Strong’s #5608, saphar. To score with a mark as a tally or record, i.e. (by implication) to inscribe, and also to enumerate; intensively, to recount. This word might infer the act of counting but more important is the fact that the word is a denominative verb from sepher, a missive, document, writing, book (#5612). Refer to the book [sepher] in Genesis 5:1.
