And the Earth is being laid-waste242 to the faces of the Elohim, and the Earth is being filled with violence.
Footnote:
| 242 | Strong’s #7843, shachath. To spoil, ruin, corrupt. Not quite the same as shamad (#8045) to destroy/desolate. Explained by the prophetic picture of the girdle (belt of truth?) in Jeremiah, And I am walking Phrat-ward and I am digging and I am taking אֶת-the Waist-cloth from the Standing-place where I have hidden him, there, and behold the Waist-cloth has been laid-waste [shachath]; he is not profiting to the whole.” Jeremiah 13:7 literal |
