Strong's Lexicon haleah: Beyond, further, onward Original Word: הָלְאָה Word Origin: Derived from the root לָאָה (la'ah), meaning "to be weary" or "to be tired." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for similar concepts is "πέραν" (peran), meaning "beyond" or "on the other side." This can be seen in passages like Matthew 8:18, where Jesus instructs His disciples to go "to the other side" of the lake. Usage: The Hebrew word "haleah" is used to indicate movement or progression beyond a certain point. It often conveys the idea of going further or continuing onward, either in a physical or metaphorical sense. In the context of biblical narratives, it can describe the continuation of a journey or the extension of an action or event. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, journeys and travels were significant aspects of life, often involving long distances and challenging terrains. The concept of moving "beyond" or "further" was not only a physical reality but also carried spiritual and metaphorical implications. It could symbolize perseverance, faith, and the pursuit of divine promises. The Israelites' journey through the wilderness, for example, was both a literal and spiritual journey of moving "haleah" towards the Promised Land.

Brown-Driver-Briggs הַל Deuteronomy 32:6 הַל יְהוָֺה תִּגְמְלוּזֹֿאת (so v. d. H and other editions) The reading here became early a subject of dispute, and MSS. and editions vary accordingly. Some follow the school of Nehardea, and read הַל יְהוָֺה; others (so Norzi) follow the school of Sora, and read הַ לְיהוָֺה; others (so Hahn) have הַלְיהוָֺה. Were הַל original, it would be an interrogative particle = Arabic  , for which elsewhere הֲ is always found. The other punctuations would also each be highly irregular. The true reading is undoubtedly (הַלְיַהְוֶה) הֲלַיהוָֺה. compare De RossiVar. Lect. on the passage; and on the possible origin of the anomaly, GeiJüd.
