1. sending, undertaking, enterprise — A masculine noun denoting the act of sending forth or putting one's hand to something, hence 'undertaking' or 'enterprise' — what one sends out or extends oneself to do (Deuteronomy 12:7, 12:18, 15:10, 23:21, 28:8, 28:20; Isaiah 7:25). Multilingual glosses show: English 'undertaking of/sending of,' Spanish 'obra de/para soltar,' Hindi 'bhejne/karya' (भेजने/कार्य), Arabic 'ma tursilu/li-irsal' (مَا تُرْسِلُ/لِإِرسَالِ), Korean 'bonaeneun geot' (보내는 것), Swahili 'kazi ya/mahali pa kulisha.' Both clusters share the same root meaning of dispatching or extending, differing only by prepositional lamed prefix. 7×
