Dec 19, 2021 at 21:23 comment added gustav.b Very interesting line of research thanks.
Dec 19, 2021 at 21:13 comment added Dottard @gustav.b - without context, the meaning becomes almost anything we want to make of it. Look at any good lexicon and the same word can mean a variety of things depending on context. For example, see this >> biblehub.com/hebrew/8441.htm
Dec 19, 2021 at 21:11 comment added gustav.b Human does and uses such contexts but the LORD I don't have any proof at the moment.
Dec 19, 2021 at 21:05 comment added gustav.b Ok. If you have any passage where "context" (and only context) is the only way to explain a certain ["hard"] passage, then the answer you posted here could absolutely be the answer, but without a such passage sorry I don't believe in such "context".
Dec 19, 2021 at 20:59 comment added Dottard @gustav.b - it is called "Context".
Dec 19, 2021 at 20:58 comment added gustav.b How the Hebrew defines it? Is there any special particule or something ?
Dec 19, 2021 at 20:49 comment added Dottard @gustav.b - the Hebrew is "an abomination" as defined in the previous verse - a carved image of gods. THAT is a "thing"; therefore, the translation is permissible.
Dec 19, 2021 at 20:45 comment added gustav.b At my knowledges the "thing" is not in the Hebrew.
