BDB2574 [H2314]

[חָדַר] verb surround, enclose (Phoenician in derivatives; Arabic II. conceal, curtain concealing a person, chamber, house, or tent as concealing some one; Ethiopic dwell; see also following)

**Phoenician is only חדר, חדרת (temple or sepulchral) chamber (Lzb²⁷¹ Cooke¹²⁶); Ezek 21:19 is best explained from Syriac go about, surround, Syriac around. It seems uncertain whether חֶדֶר, Phoenician חדר chamber, Arabic curtain, chamber, tent, etc., are (ultimately) from this √ (as something surrounding); or (Buhl) from II. חדר = II. conceal behind curtain, conceal, confine, IV. conceal oneself, also abide, stay, remain behind (Land^{707 f.}), Ethiopic abide, dwell (Driver, privately, Nov. 1905). — only Qal Participle feminine singular הַחֹדֶ֫רֶת לָהֶם Ezek 21:19 that which surroundeth them (of the sword), — so ᵑ6 Thes Sm Co Da VB.
