i fully agree that Isa 22:4 minniy expresses gender ("from me") whereas job
31:7 does not express gender ("from"). so, the HI=road part must be wrong.

[Steve Miller] Thanks Isaac. But if מני = מן + היא, wouldn't I would expect
it to be used just with feminine and common objects, but it is used with
masculine objects, i.e. Job 20:4; Ps 88:9. I don't see it being used with any
feminine objects.
