<p> <em> Mâlaṭ </em> ( '''''מָלַט''''' , Strong'S #4422), “to escape, slip away, deliver, give birth.” This word is found in both ancient and modern Hebrew. <em> Mâlaṭ </em> occurs approximately 95 times in the [[Hebrew]] Old Testament. The word appears twice in the first verse in which it is found: “Flee for your life; … flee to the hills, lest you be consumed” (Gen. 19:17, RSV). Sometimes <em> mâlaṭ </em> is used in parallelism with $, “to flee” (1 Sam. 19:10), or with <em> mâlaṭ </em> , “to flee” (1 Sam. 19:12). The most common use of this word is to express the “escaping” from any kind of dangersuch as an enemy (Isa. 20:6), a trap (2 Kings 10:24), or a temptress (Eccl. 7:26). When Josiah’s reform called for burning the bones of false prophets, a special directive was issued to spare the bones of a true prophet buried at the same place: “… So they let his bones alone …” (2 Kings 23:18; literally, “they let his bones escape”). <em> Mâlaṭ </em> is used once in the sense of “delivering a child” (Isa. 66:7). </p>
