STRONGS H4943: Abbreviations
מֶ֫שֶׁק noun [masculine] acquisition, possession (?; meaning conjectured from context, from analogy of מִמְשָׁק which see, and of משׁך), only וּבֶןמֶֿשֶׁק בֵּיתִי הוּא דַּמֶּשֶׂק אֱלִיעֶזֶר Genesis 15:2 (compare בן 8. (λ), above; Ges§ 128. 2, R. 2. c) and the son of acquisition (= he who is to acquire, the heir of) my house is, etc.; מ׳ possibly changed from משׁך (compare Job 28:18) for word-play with דמשׂק, Kau and SoGn. Anm. 62, or by copyist's error, but very dubious. Greek Version of the LXX Μασεκ (proper name, compare LagBN 78).
