Commento su Osea 13:14

From the clutches of the grave I would ransom them I am He Who would ransom them from the clutches of the grave and redeem them from death, but now... I will be your words of death Heb. אֱהִי דְבָרֶיךָ. I will place Myself to speak of you words of death.

I will decree...upon you Heb. קָטָבְךָ. I will decree upon you the decree of the grave.

Remorse shall be hidden from My eyes Heb. נֹחַם. I will not regret this evil. נֹחֵם is an expression of regret (נִחוּם), and the “mem” is a radical like the “mem” of נֹעַם, pleasantness, for the accent is on the first syllable, and the “heth” is vowelized with a “pattah.” Were it an expression of resting (נָח), with the “mem” serving as a suffix denoting the plural, the accent would be under the “heth,” and it would be vowelized with a “kamatz” [like כֹּחָם their strength; רוּחָם, their spirit.]
