Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

אָהַל (1) perhaps i.q. הָלַל هَلَّ to be bright, to shine, by interchange of the verbs פא֞ & עע֞. Hence אֹהֶל so called from its shining vibrating appearance. See Hiph.

(2) denom. from אֹהֶל, to move one’s tent, used of wandering nomades, sometimes pitching their tents, Genesis 13:12, sometimes removing them, Genesis 13:18, וַיֶּאֱהַל אַבְרָם; LXX. ἀποσκηνώσας Ἀβράμ. Vulg. movens tabernaculum suum.

Piel fut. יְאַהֵל contr. יַהֵל i.q. Kal No. 2, to pitch a tent; Isaiah 13:20. Comp. מַלֵּף for מְאַלֵּף.

Hiphil, i.q. Kal No. 1, to shine, probably Glanz verbreiten, to give light; Job 25:5, הֵן עַד־יָרֵחַ וְלֹא־יַאֲהִיל “behold even the moon, and it shineth not,” i.e. it is not pure, clean in the sight of God. Jerome ecce! luna etiam non splendet. LXX. οὐκ ἐπιφαύσκει. [Derivatives, the following words.]
