Definition as Weight

Word Studies in Context and Definition is Book 6 in its grove. Dedication: For Level 5 ordinands who will never again lift a verse by its hair.

A word study that ignores context is a spell. A word study that ignores definition is a mood. ACTS requires both.

Chapter 3 — Definition as Weight. What a word carries is part of what it means.

This page belongs to the YAHnglish / YAHbrayi grove — Z-3:9 as a working lip, not a slogan.

The lemma under this chapter is DABAR (Word / matter). Keep it in the mouth as you read the next ten pages. Do not skip to a later seal.

ACTS is Mooray-established: a teacher walks a talmid through a process. Seventy-seven pages is the process made of paper. Eleven pages make a chapter. Seven chapters make a book. Seven levels make a school.
