רוּץ to run (Eth. ረቂጵ፡ Aram. רְהַט, ܪܗܰܛ id.; compare under the letter ה), Genesis 18:7, 24:20 29:12, and very often. Figuratively, Jeremiah 23:21, “I have not sent (those) prophets; (but) they run,” betake themselves to the prophetic function with evil assiduity. Psalms 119:32, “I will run in the way of thy commandments,” I will carefully walk in them. Habakkuk 2:2, “that he who readeth may run,” may read without difficulty. Used of inanimate things, Psalms 147:15. Specially
(a) to rush upon in a hostile manner, followed by אֶל and עַל Job 15:26, 16:14 followed by an acc. Psalms 18:30.
(b) followed by בְּ to flee to any one for safety, Proverbs 18:10.
Part. pl. רָצִים and רָצִין 2 Kings 11:13, runners.
(a) the horsemen, warriors of the Persian kings, whose business it was to carry the royal mandates to the provinces, Esther 3:13, 15 8:14.
(b) the guard, and royal messengers of the Hebrews in the time of Saul, 1 Samuel 22:17 and of the kings after David, 2 Kings 10:25, 11:6, seq.; prob. the same who in the reign of David were called פְּלֵתִי (which see). Compare 1 Kings 1:5, 14:27 2 Samuel 15:1.
Pilel רוֹצֵץ i.q. Kal, to run (as a chariot), Nahum 2:5.
Hiphil, to cause to run up, Jeremiah 49:19, 50:44 hence to lead up hastily, to bring quickly, Genesis 41:14; 1 Samuel 17:17 to cause to hasten. Psalms 68:32, בּוּשׁ תָּרִיץ יָדָיו לֵאלֹהִים “Ethiopia will make her hands to h as ten to God,” either to worship him, or else to offer gifts.
Derivatives, מֵרוֹץ, מְרוּצָה.
Note. Several forms of the verbs רוּץ, as the fut. יָרוּץ Niph. נָרוֹץ, the noun מְרוּצָה No. II, take their signification from the verb רָצַץ, which see.
