What on earth happened to the following message, and another one which 
will follow? I sent it, one copy only, to the b-hebrew list, but it 
doesn't appear that anything was sent out to the list.

Please, Mr List-Owner, what's the problem? I appreciate the efforts to 
stop duplicate messages, but something is wrong here. Could it be that 
the actual problem is that I had sent a completely different message 
recently, and that somehow the server is set up to accept only one 
message at a time from any one sender - even when the messages are 
quite different? If that is the intention, please warn us!

Peter Kirk

Sorry, your message was not sent out to 'b-hebrew' 
because the first line of the message is identical 
to a message you sent to b-hebrew recently.

If you believe you are receiving this message in error,

Surely ):AXOWXIY "Ahohite" is from the root aleph-xeth-xeth and so is 
not related to )FX "brother", whose root (as one can tell from the 
construct form ):AXIY ) is aleph-xeth-yodh (traditionally 
misrepresented as aleph-xeth-he). The Hebrew word for "brotherhood" 
(the only one from this root, used at Zec 11:11) is )AX:AWFH (yodh 
replaced by waw, no second xeth). So probably Dodai the Ahohite was 
simply a descendant of ):AXOWAX Ahoah the grandson of Benjamin (1 Ch 
8:4), and "Ahohite" is a gentilic like hundreds of others in the 
Hebrew text.

The Ahohites are usally understood as the family of Ahoah. But given the 
meaning "brotherhood" can we not see this as a "fraternity" in the sense 
of some organization, not necessarily a blood-relation?
