תְּלוּת
Get talking... in Hebrew.
After observing the הוֹשַׁעֲנָא רַבָּה (hoh-shah-NAH rah-BAH) service this morning and looking forward to the prayer for rain tomorrow, I've been thinking about how much we humans depend upon water and rain - for the believers among us, G-d's blessing - especially in Israel.
The Hebrew word for dependency is תְּלוּת (teh-LOOT), deriving from the verb לִתְלוֹת (leet-LOHT), meaning, literally, to hang (if I depend on something, I hang or hinge on it). A related phrase you might know is ...זֶה תָּלוּי ב (zeh tah-LOO-ee beh...) - it depends on...
May it rain this winter...
Happy holiday!
