כֹּה

1. of manner, thus (so most frequently, and usually pointing to what is to follow, while כֵּן points commonly to what has preceded), 1 Mos 15,5 כה יהיה זרעך thus shall thy seed be, 4 Mos 6,23; 1 Kong 2,30 כֹּה דִבֶּר יוֺאָב וְכֹה עָנָנִי, 1 Kong 5,25; Es 24,13 (answered by בְּ, as Jer 23,29); with a substantive Es 20,6 הִנֵּה כֹה מַבָּטֵנוּ, Jer 9,21 (si vera lectio), Jer 23,29; 1 Sam 27,11. Mostly confined to particular phrases: thus
\ \ a. with different forms of אמר, כה תאמר thus shalt thou say 2 Mos 3,14; 2 Mos 3,15; 2 Mos 19,3; 2 Mos 20,22 etc.; especially כה אמר יי֞ thus saith (or said) ׳י 2 Mos 4,22; 2 Mos 5,1; 2 Mos 7,17; 2 Mos 7,26; 2 Mos 8,16 etc.; and continually in the prophets, as Es 7,7; Es 8,11; Es 18,4 etc.; Jer 2,2; Jer 2,5; Jer 4,27; Jer 6,16 etc.; also in the idiomatic formula אִם כֹּה יאֹמַר if he say (or used to say) (the words spoken following) 1 Mos 31,8; 1 Sam 14,9; 1 Sam 14,10; 1 Sam 20,7; 2 Sam 15,26.
\ \ b. with עשׂה to do thus, 2 Mos 5,15; 5 Mos 7,5 pointing back, 4 Mos 22,30; Jos 6,14; 1 Sam 27,11 and elsewhere; especially in the phrase כה יעשׂה אלהים וכה יוסיף (with variations), 1 Sam 3,17 + (see יסף), in which כֹּה points to an imprecation understood but not expressed. With בְּ prefixed 1 Kong 22,20 ויאמר זה בְּכֹה וזה אמר בְּכֹה and one spake in this wise, and another spake in that wise (|| 2 Kron 18,19 כָכָהכָּ֗֗֗כָה; probably rightly).

Repeated, 2 Mos 2,12 וַיִּפֶן כֹּה וָכֹה and he turned this way and that way; כֹּהכֹּ֗֗֗ה on this side . . . on that side 4 Mos 11,31. With עַד 1 Mos 22,5 and we will go עַדכֹּֿה as far as here (δεικτικῶς) i.e. yonder.

3. of time, עַד כֹּה hitherto, 2 Mos 7,16 (compare עַדהֵֿנָּה), Jos 17,14 עַדכֹּֿה וְעַדכֹּֿה till now and till then, i.e. meanwhile, 1 Kong 18,45.
