[edit] Final-mem being used in the middle of a word
The article reads:
- The final form of Mem is used in the middle of a word only once in the Bible. In Isaiah 9:6, it says:
- לםרבה (לְמַרְבֵּה) הַמִּשְׂרָה וּלְשָׁלוֹם אֵין-קֵץ.
- That the rule may be increased, and of peace there be no end.
That's quite interesting, but why is it so used? Why didn't they use a non-final mem, to make למרבה? What difference does it signify? :o) — OwenBlacker (Talk) 17:06, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
