In the Shema, the basic credo of the Jew and our declaration of faith before we leave this world, the second time we say the name of Hashem, one of our thoughts should be that I am prepared to put up with any pain or suffering, or to give my life to sanctify the Name of Hashem. This story serves as our entry point into exploring the etymology of potzer, which also leads us to exploring related Hebrew synonyms, such as docheh, dochef, hadof, and dofek — all of which connote various forms of "pushing." By delving into the rich etymology and multifaceted meanings of these words, we can gain a deeper understanding of the subtleties within the Hebrew language and various Hebrew words. It is important to distinguish between the physical act of “pushing” and the metaphorical sense of “being pushed around” or “coerced.” Some of the words we will discuss encompass both of these notions, and these usages carry intriguing implications throughout the Hebrew Bible. 33:11) further enriches our understanding by arguing that the three-letter root in question is actually itself an off-shoot of the biliteral root TZADI-REISH (“narrow/strait”), as “pushing” somebody to do so something essentially leaves that person in a situation with narrow choices until he relents (evidently, he saw the PEH as a sort of radical added to the core biliteral root). Let’s shift our focus to the word docheh, whose root DALET-CHET-HEY (dachah) carries the connotation of being “pushed.” An almost identical root is DALET-VAV-CHET, which also refers to being “pushed.” As the Psalmist famously says about himself, “I was surely pushed (dacho dechitani) into falling / And Hashem helped me” (Psalms 118:13). In a more colloquial sense, within Yeshivish parlance, when someone dismisses a particular argument or line of thinking, they may be said to be dochech that particular argument or line of thinking, reinforcing the idea of “pushing” aside one viewpoint in favor of another. ww.ohr.edu 4 TALMUD TIPS by Rabbi Moshe Newman Bava Kama 2-8 Introduction to Bava Kama W e now begin learning Masechet Bava Kama, the fir
