  • The verb הַגִיד ("show" [NIV, NLT, ESV, GNT, CEV]; "announce" [NET; cf. LXX: ἀνήγγειλεν; Jerome: adnuntiabit]) usually refers to a "causative action by which humans pass on information to others, usually by word of mouth."[1] In Late Biblical Hebrew, however, the word came to refer also to non-verbal communication ("show" or "demonstrate").[2]
