RE: 'Avodat ha-kodesh
What a pleasant and scholarly exchange that was. Fun to overhear.Janet On Tue, 27 Jul 2010, Biella, Joan wrote: Thanks to all who answered my question. It all becomes much easier when you explain that ka- (subscript dot under k) is a verbal prefix. I must have been sick that day in Aramaic class … But I do miss the pelican. More fun than a nesher gadol any day.

The phrase “gavra raba,” for a great man, is also Aramaic. Here two idioms overlap in a novel usage. Therefore I see the closing word as the Aramaic verb ka-atu, the conventional prefix with the verb “they come.” Something like: Resplendent as the radiant stars coming from the power of the hand of a great man. If you don’t like my reading, you can give me the bird, so to speak.

The statement of responsibility says these seven works are ככוכבים מאירים ומזהירים מכח גברא רבא קאתו I think I get all that until we come to the pelican. קאת = pelican in Aramaic, right?. What do we have here, a man of great pelican? A man, great his pelican? I have a feeling we're dealing with something like חסיד in Hebrew, but what, exactly? Please enlighten me. Thank you. Joan
