<p> is a frequent rendering of the [[Hebrew]] כִּ, ''Kaph,'' properly ''Something'' curved or hollow, and hence the interior of the hand. It is used as a general word for the hand, both in literal and figurative expressions, e.g. Ezra 21:16; 1 Samuel 4:3, as well as for the [[Palms]] only, as Leviticus 18:26; Daniel 10:10. It is also applied, like the Latin ''Palma,'' to the branches of the ''Palm-Tree,'' from their curved form; as Leviticus 23:40. But the [[Palm-Tree]] is denoted in Hebrew by the word ''Tamar, תָּמָר'' , from a root meaning ''To [[Stand]] Erect'' ( Joel 1:12; Song of Solomon 7:9; Exodus 15:27), and by the word תֹּמֶר, ''Tomer, From'' the same root. (See [[Hand]]); (See Palm-Tree). </p> | <p> is a frequent rendering of the [[Hebrew]] '''''כִּ''''' , ''Kaph,'' properly ''Something'' curved or hollow, and hence the interior of the hand.
