mo.reh denotes rain in Joel’s announcement of showers and spring rain; its contribution in Psalm is not isolated by the translation.

The attested use is associated with rain: Joel 2:23 places two singular noun forms within the announcement that God has sent showers, rain, and spring rain. Psalm 84:7 contains the same singular noun form, but the supplied translation does not make its specific contribution visible.

Senses in use

  1. Rain in a divine provision announcement · dominant

    In Joel 2:23, two singular absolute noun forms occur in the statement that God has given rain and sent down showers, rain, and spring rain; the APB renders the clause "he has sent down showers, rain, and spring rain as at the first." Psalm 84:7 has the same singular absolute form, though the APB renders only the travelers’ progress toward God in Zion and does not isolate the term’s contribution.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Joel 2:23, the APB presents the surrounding clause with "rain," "showers," and "spring rain." In Psalm 84:7, the translation does not visibly render the term as a distinct English expression.
