what is meant by ruaH here and in zillions of other places?
Is it pars pro toto, they *themselves* were bitter to Yitsak
and Rivka?
Or is it the notion that a person's breath somehow reveals
his mood or attitude?
Is there something about the anthropology of the Hebrews
that underlies this?
Thanks,

Liz Fried
