א-ב Our Aleph-Bet theme of sprouting new life continues with אב AhBH, green, fresh. Doubled in אביב ABHiBH (spring, Passover time) , this gives us VIVID (alive). The built-in opposite is אבד ABHaD, lost; “perished” in Numbers 21:30. Here is the source of OBIT.
Nasalize אבד ABHaD to get ABANDON, loss of will to keep serving a cause. This is the opposite of עבד [A]hBHahD, to work -- source of OBEDIENCE, The entries "VIVID." "OBIT" and "OBEDIENCE" are in the Edenics CD Dictionary. ------------------------ Posted from within view of the top half of the Kinneret (Sea of Galilee) -- named "harplike" because of its shape.
