Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

הָם or הֵם only in pl. with suffix הֱמֵהֶם for הֱמֵיהֶם their riches. Ezekiel 7:11, לֹא מֵהֶם וְלֹא מֵהֲמוֹנָם וְלֹא מֵהֱמֵהֶם “nothing of them (shall remain), neither of their multitude, nor of their wealth.” The paronomasia of the words מֵהֶם, מֵהֲמֹנָם, מֵהֱמֵהֶם appears to have given occasion for the use of this new or at least uncommon form.
