Genesis 8:10

And he is piercing315 again the seven days behind,316 and he is adding to send forth317 the dove from-out the Chest.

Footnote:

315

This is more properly from #2490 chalal חלל to bore/pierce. And he pierces around seven days…And he is piercing again seven days…Comparing verse 10 and 12 we find an interesting contrast. Strong’s #2342, chuwl means to whirl, turn, spin.
