In Genesis 40:13 the idiom "lifter of the/my head" is used in its normal idiomatic sense of "to restore/to encourage" while in verse 19  of the same chapter the same idiom is used literally ie your head is going to be lifted---right of your shoulders. I am interested to know if others have found idioms used in a literal sense in other texts of the Hebrew Scripture. Thanks in advance for your input. Shalom, Brent Emery
