This denominative verb from the root רגל (foot) appears in Hosea 11:3, where God tenderly recalls teaching Ephraim to walk, like a parent guiding a toddler's first steps. The verb form (Tiphel or Pilpel) suggests intensive or causative action: not merely walking but being taught or trained to walk through repeated practice. The imagery is profoundly intimate—God as parent bending down to guide Israel's fledgling steps. Yet the pathos is that Israel did not recognize who was teaching them. The multilingual evidence (Spanish 'enseñé a caminar,' French 'enseigner') preserves this pedagogical nuance.
