‎הֲלֹם‎ adverb of place, hither (Arabic hither!) — Exod 3:5 ‎אַלתִּֿקְרַב הֲלֹם‎ approach not hither, Judg 18:3; Judg 20:7; 1Sam 10:22; 1Sam 14:16 and lo, the camp melted away ‎וַיֵּלֶךְ וַהֲלֹם‎ read with ᵐ5 (ἔνθεν καὶ ἔνθεν) Th We Dr ‎הֲלֹם וַהֲלֹם‎ hither and thither i.e. in different directions (compare ‎הֵנָּה וָהֵנָּה‎ Josh 8:20), vJosh 8:36 vJosh 8:38; Ruth 2:14 ‎עַד הֲלֹם‎ figurative hitherto, thus far (i.e. to this point of dignity and greatness) 2Sam 7:18 (= 1Chr 17:16). Ps 73:10, if text be sound, ‎הֲלֹם‎ must mean thither (that is, after the persons described vPs 73:3); but such sense questionable; read probably with Houb La for ‎ישיב עמו הלם‎, ‎יַשְׂבִּעֵמוֺ‎ ‎לָ֑חֶם‎ satisfies them with bread: compare Che Hup^Now. Gen 16:13 = here; but here also text is dubious: v Di. Judg 14:15 read ‎הֲלֹם‎ for ‎הֲלֹא‎: see ‎הֲ‎ 1 end.
