The basic and main meaning of XLP is "to pass on/through" as we clearly have it in Song 2:11: "The rain passed on and went (out / away)"
Now, it is true that in the Hiphil it takes a range of meanings where "exchange" seems to be the main one.In Jb 29:20 I cannot understand what TXLYP really means...
I think, Karl, that in Ez 1:9 we have to trust the tradition, which has understood this word as "knives". LXX has "parellagmena".
And concerning the form, do you not accept that it can also be a Hiphil Participle?
