Karl:

In response to my quoting of Prof. Heard’s book, “In four of the remaining
six cases, the sense is one of assistance, and ‘hand’ is the object of ‘
strengthen’ or ‘hold’ (the pi(el or hip(il of hazaq, as in Gen 21:8….”, you
noted:

“Not found in Genesis 21:8.”

That’s a typo in the book that unfortunately I did not catch. The correct
cite is Genesis 21: 18.

Now that we have the right citation, how would you compare Genesis 16: 12
to Genesis 21: 18?
