Hallo. I am having a bit of a problem understanding the use of the noun
ATaK, for example in 1 Sam 2:3.

Its whole meaning from the root "To remove" fig - to grow old, to
transcribe, to copy. Its use to designate vanity, vain glory, pride and
arrogance mystifies me and I do not have suitable references to look up
myself. Is it not really a verbal idea anyway because of the patachs?
