STRONGS H1988: Abbreviations
† הֲלֹם adverb of place, hither (Arabic bdb024001 hither!) — Exodus 3:5 אַלתִּֿקְרַב הֲלֹם approach not hither, Judges 18:3; Judges 20:7; 1 Samuel 10:22; 1 Samuel 14:16 and lo, the camp melted away וַיֵּלֶךְ וַהֲלֹם read with Greek Version of the LXX (ἔνθεν καὶ ἔνθεν) Th We Dr הֲלֹם וַהֲלֹם hither and thither i.e. in different directions (compare הֵנָּה וָהֵנָּה Joshua 8:20), 1 Samuel 14:36; 1 Samuel 8:38; Ruth 2:14; עַד הֲלֹם figurative hitherto, thus far (i.e. to this point of dignity and greatness) 2 Samuel 7:18 (= 1 Chronicles 17:16). Psalm 73:10, if text be sound, הֲלֹם must mean thither (that is, after the persons described Psalm 73:3); but such sense questionable; read probably with Houb La for ישיב עמו הלם, יַשְׂבִּעֵמוֺ לָ֑חֶם satisfies them with bread: compare Che HupNow. Genesis 16:13 = here; but here also text is dubious: see Di. Judges 14:15 read הֲלֹם for הֲלֹא : see הֲ 1 end.
