1480) rs (סהר ShR) AC: Tie CO: Cord AB: ?: The pictograph s is a picture of the teeth representing pressure, the r is a picture of the head representing the top or beginning. Combined these mean "press the beginning". Ropes and cords were usually made of bark strips such as from the cedar or from the sinew (tendon) of an animal. The rope is made by twisting two fibers together. A single fiber is attached to a fixed point (top) , and the two ends of the fiber are brought together. One fiber is twisted in a clockwise direction and wrapped over the other fiber in counter clockwise direction. The second fiber is then twisted in clockwise direction then wrapped around the first fiber in a counter clockwise direction. The process is repeated through the length of the rope. The twisting of the fibers in opposite directions causes the fibers to lock (press) onto each other making a stronger rope. The rope is used to tightly secure or support something, such as a load to a cart or the poles of the tent.

יָתַר
(1) pr. to be redundant (drüber hinaushängen), see יֶתֶר No. 1, and מֵיתָר ; hence
(2) to abound (überflüffig fehn, περισσεύειν).
(3) to be over and above, to be left (übrig fehn).
(4) to be beyond measure, to exceed bounds; hence to be preeminent, to excel.
In Kal there only occurs part. יוֹתֵר that which is left, the rest, 1 Samuel 15:15 whence gain, and adv. more, farther, see page 344, A.
Hiphil הוֹתִיר
(1) to cause some one to abound with something; followed by an acc. of pers. and בְּ of the thing, Deuteronomy 28:11, 30:9.
(2) to let remain, to leave, Exodus 10:15, 12:10 Isaiah 1:9. Psalms 79:11, הוֹתֵר בְּנֵי תְמוּתָה “let remain (i.e. keep alive) the sons of death,” i.e. those doomed to die.
(3) to make profit (like Syr. ܝܺܬܪܰ Pe. and Aph.). Genesis 49:4, אַל תּוֹתַר “thou shalt not lay up gain” [in Thes. “ ‘thou shalt not excel,’ shalt not be superior to thy brethren”].
Niphal נוֹתַר
(1) to be left, to be let to remain, Exodus 10:15 also, to remain, Genesis 32:25. Part. נוֹתָר, fem. נוֹתֶרֶת rest, remainder, Genesis 30:36; Exodus 28:10, 29:34.
(2) to excel, to be superior to the rest; hence to gain a victory. (Syr. Ethpa. to excel, to be preeminent.) Daniel 10:13, וַאֲנִי נוֹתַרְתִּי שָׁם אֵצֶל מַלְכֵי פְרָס “and I there obtained the victory with the kings of Persia.” [This sense is in Thes. spoken of very doubtfully, and in this passage the meaning given in the Engl. Vers. is preferred.]
