Interpretation

Apparatus Criticus
HaNSB 235: Translation of ʾḫḏt "shelter, hideaway" (ḥimā).
Commentary
Safaitic ʾḫḏt could be cognate with iḫāḏah "a pool of water left by a flash flood" (Lane 30b-c), so that l N h/ ʾḫḏt would be parallel to l N h/ dr and would mean "N was at the pool left by the flash flood".
