Dear all,

Can anyone explain the word הַצְּפִינוֹ֒ "hacepino" - why is there a dagesh
in the sade and not in the pe?

See GKC 20h, where (as noted in BDB) this word is listed as an example of "When a consonant with /Sheva/ is strengthened by /Dagesh forte dirimens/ to make the /Sheva/ more audible" (spellings of Hebrew points adjusted).
