While being at it, do you have a good resolution to the enigmatic verse 6 of Gen. Chapter 39:

ויעזב כל אשר לו ביד יוסף ולא ידע אתו מאומה כי אם הלחם אשר הוא אוכל

What is this WLO YADA ITO MUMAH KIY IM HALEXEM A$ER HU OKEL (Rashi: LEXEM = wife)?

In this week's Torah Portion, בראשית פרק מ verse 11 appears the word: וָאֶשְׂחַט

I checked a concordance - this verb appears nowhere else in the
tanakh. What is the source of the modern usage of the verb with a
samekh instead of with a sin as in this verse? Is it mishnaic?

Thanks
