1. of manner, thus (so most frequently, and usually pointing to what is to follow, while כֵּן points commonly to what has preceded), Genesis 15:5 כה יהיה זרעך thus shall thy seed be, Numbers 6:23; 1 Kings 2:30 כֹּה דִבֶּר יוֺאָב וְכֹה עָנָנִי, 1 Kings 5:25; Isaiah 24:13 (answered by בְּ, as Jeremiah 23:29); with a substantive Isaiah 20:6 הִנֵּה כֹה מַבָּטֵנוּ, Jeremiah 9:21 (si vera lectio), Jeremiah 23:29; 1 Samuel 27:11. Mostly confined to particular phrases: thus

b. with עשׂה to do thus, Exodus 5:15; Deuteronomy 7:5; pointing back, Numbers 22:30; Joshua 6:14; 1 Samuel 27:11 and elsewhere; especially in the phrase כה יעשׂה אלהים וכה יוסיף (with variations), 1 Samuel 3:17 + (see יסף), in which כֹּה points to an imprecation understood but not expressed. With בְּ prefixed 1 Kings 22:20 ויאמר זה בְּכֹה וזה אמר בְּכֹה and one spake in this wise, and another spake in that wise (|| 2 Chronicles 18:19 כָכָהכָּ֗֗֗כָה; probably rightly).
