The Hebrew verb paga is fascinating in the sense that this one word is used to describe several very different activities. The basic concept of paga is “coming into contact with or meeting.” The meeting can be between people, animals, or even inanimate objects, such as two people’s lands meeting to form a boundary. Any type of meeting can be paga,(1) and the meeting can be good or bad, pleasant or unpleasant, intentional or accidental. Here are some other examples of the way

Over time, the verb “make” has evolved from a word indicating basic action to forming numerous idiomatic expressions representing success, survival, and other activities.

At the end of the weighty word in Tim’s GH15 post yesterday, I mentioned Queen Esther in the prayer. Esther was an orphaned Jew living in pagan-ruled Persia, whom God miraculously made queen.
