<< DKS: "Anyone" or "everyone" can be expressed with _KL_ "all" followed by
aparticiple (Gen 4:14, 15, 21; Exod 12:15), or followed by *ish* (Gen 45:1;

"... if the one falling should fall from it."

I think it is quite reasonable to take this as "someone" or "anyone" even
without the qualifications. HANOP"L (hanofel) "the one falling" would seem
to say "anyone who falls." Makes sense to me.
