“A trap. (1.) Ps. 140:5, 141:9, Amos 3:5, the Hebrew word used,” “mokesh, means a noose or “snare,” as it is elsewhere rendered” “(Ps. 18:5; Prov. 13:14, etc.).” “(2.) Job 18:9, Isa. 8:14, Heb. pah, a plate or thin layer; and “hence a net, a snare, trap, especially of a fowler (Ps. 69: 22,” “Let their table before them become a net; Amos 3:5, “Doth a” bird fall into a net [pah] upon the ground where there is no trap-stick [mokesh] for her? doth the net [pah] spring up from “the ground and take nothing at all?”, Gesenius.)”
