Can the noun $:)WOL, sheol, be considered as an Infinitive --either
construct (1Sa 12:17) or absolute (Gen 43:7)-- of the verb $F)AL, to
ask?
Is it possible that this noun took origine from the fact that every human
being "is asking" what he will find after death?
If yes, would it come from the Infinitive construct rather than from the
Infinitive absolute? Perhaps this last question makes no sense because
both
Infinitives are the same thing?

1 Sam 12:17 is not in construct


What then is L$)WL (1Sam 12:17) if not Infinitive construct?
