Same Hebrew root (TWOT 2889)

Root family 2889: סְלֵק sĕlēq — come up. A common BA equivalent of the Hebrew ʿālâ. The word shows the backward assimilation of the “l” known elsewhere in Aramaic, so certain forms look like nĕsaq. The Hebrew cognates are sālēq and śālaq (q.v.)

• נְסַק nĕsaq — come up
