Mark pt2

χάραξ chárax, khar'-ax; from χαράσσω charássō (to sharpen to a point; akin to G1125 through the idea of scratching); a stake, i.e. (by implication) a palisade or rampart (military mound for circumvallation in a siege):—trench. Mark Etymology The primary sense "boundary" had evolved by Old English through "pillar, post, etc. as a sign of a boundary," through "a sign in general," then to "impression or trace forming a sign." Meaning "any visible trace or impression" is recorded by c. 1200. Meaning "a cross or other character made by an illiterate person as a signature" is from late Old English. Sense of "line drawn to indicate the starting point of a race" (as in on your marks ..., which is by 1890) is attested by 1887. KJV Mal 1:4 Whereas Edom saith, We are impoverished, but we will return and build the desolate places; thus saith yaHaWaH of hosts, They shall build, but I will throw down; and they shall call them, The border of wickedness, and, The people against whom yaHaWaH hath indignation for ever. Mal 1:5 And your eyes shall see, and ye shall say, yaHaWaH will be magnified from the border of Israel.
