Re: Cheretz / Becheretz


Message 02644 of 3835


Dear Dan,

> Does the word "cheretz" or "becheretz" mean anything to you?

It sounds to me like it might be Hebrew. It can be either ChRTz - 
meaning a groove, a notch or a decree, or a very improper 
transliteration of ARTz - which generally means land or state.
If the 'ch' is indeed pronounced gutturally, then it's the first 
meaning.
Also, 'be' means inside.

Sincerely,
D. Gutmanas
