רֶגַע שֶׁל עִבְרִית A Moment of Hebrew
מֵאֵ֨ל אָבִ֜יךָ וְיַעְזְרֶ֗ךָּ...
The God of your father who helps you...
לַעֲזֹר (שֹׁרֶשׁ ע.ז.ר)
- To help
עֶזְרָה רִאשׁוֹנָה = First aid
בְּעֶזְרַת הַשֵּׁם = With God's help
גַּלְגַּלֵּי עֵזֶר = Training wheels
Find the Word!
One of Moshe’s children’s names contains this שֹׁרֶשׁ (shoresh, root)! Can you find it in Shemot 18? Can you think of other Hebrew names with this root?
