zoh is a demonstrative pronoun that points to a specified person, place, matter, action, or observation in its clause.

As a demonstrative pronoun, zoh identifies a particular referent within the immediate statement: a road and city, a chamber, an account of Micah's actions, or a tested observation. Its contribution is grammatical and deictic rather than a set of separate lexical senses.

In 2 Kings 6:19 the APB renders the paired identifications "This is not the road, and this is not the city"; in Ezekiel 40:45 it introduces the identified chamber, and in Judges 18:4 it introduces Micah's actions toward the speaker. Ecclesiastes 7:23 similarly gathers the tested matters in "All this I have tested by wisdom."

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB commonly reflects the demonstrative with forms such as "This," "All this," and "this wisdom," while in some clauses it uses wording such as "thus and thus" or does not make the term's individual contribution clear. These are clause-level presentations rather than fixed renderings.
