Footnotes
- 30 The word מֶשֶׁךְ (meshekh) comes from a root meaning “to grasp; to seize; to hold,” and so the derived noun means “grasping; acquiring; taking possession,” and therefore, “price” (see the discussion in R. Gordis, Job, 309). Gray renders it “acquisition” (so A. Cohen, 40 [1923/24]: 175).
- 31 In Lam 4:7 these are described as red, and so have been identified as rubies (so ) or corals.
