Genesis 16:12

605

Strong’s #6501, pere. Swift-one, running-one. Gesenius writes, “a wild ass, so called from its running (as it is a very swift animal).” An infrequent word, it is used once as a verb in Hosea 13:15,

“For himself is between brothers, he-is-causing-to-run/bear swiftly [para]…”

But this is interpreted for some reason as “to be fruitful”. See #6500.

“a wild-ass/running-one [pere] is he-who-is-separated to-himself…” Hosea 8:9 literal
