Greetings,
[Gen 6:16 KJV] 16 A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; [with] lower, second, and third [stories] shalt thou make it.
lower, second, and third [stories]
lower, second, and third [stories]
"Stories" is in parenthesis because there is not a single Hebrew word corresponding to it, rather, it is adduced from the word ending of one of the Hebrew words. Let's look at the Hebrew word endings corresponding to lower, second, and third. Each of these 3 words end in the plural form, ie. 'im'. In hebrew font it is:
תַּחְתִּיִּם שְׁנִיִּם וּשְׁלִשִׁים
The Hebrew in English font is:
TChtim ShNim NShLShim
Notice all three words end in 'im'.
I am not sure, but iIt seems to be saying
lowers, seconds, and thirds.
Am I correct?
Either way, I would appreciate any discussion on this.
Thanks in advance..
Also, there is a similar verse for consideration:
Eze 42:3 Over against the twenty [cubits] which [were] for the inner court, and over against the pavement which [was] for the utter court, [was] gallery against gallery in three [stories].
three [stories].
three [stories].
three [stories].
