  Borrow
     The Israelites "borrowed" from the Egyptians (Ex. 12:35, R.V.,
     "asked") in accordance with a divine command (3:22; 11:2). But
     the word (sha'al) so rendered here means simply and always to
     "request" or "demand." The Hebrew had another word which is
     properly translated "borrow" in Deut. 28:12; Ps. 37:21. It was
     well known that the parting was final. The Egyptians were so
     anxious to get the Israelites away out of their land that "they
     let them have what they asked" (Ex. 12:36, R.V.), or literally
     "made them to ask," urged them to take whatever they desired and
     depart. (See LOAN.)
