[b-hebrew] Gen 16:12 Hand Against?

The entry for "Yado bakol" at http://www.learnhebrew.org.il/print/2010/july5.htm is strangely ironic.
 
It claims that the etymology comes from Genesis 16:12 which (it asserts) was a "definitely negative" meaning.
 
Then it goes on to say that "in recent years it has turned semi-positive".
 
Alas, what did the Genesis original communicate to Hagar!

a curiousity: "yad kol bo", accidentally or not, permutes the same 
6 letters of "yado bakol". 

nir cohen
