Hmm, I checked Strong's Concordance and the definitions don't match?

to be conspicuous, tell, make known (Hiphil) to tell, declare to tell, announce, report to declare, make known, expound to inform of to publish, declare, proclaim to avow, acknowledge, confess messenger (participle) (Hophal) to be told, be announced, be reported
 * Yes, this is a tricky one. I believe the original sense was "to be/make conspicuous", which developed into "to be in front of", which developed into "to be opposite", which developed into "to be opposed". Of course that's for the root. This form may be restricted to one part of the semantic range, in which case the Strong's Concordance link would need to be moved.

 * In the Bible, the pa'al (Qal) form does not exist, which is why Strong's only defines the hif'il (Hiphil) form and huf'al (Hophal) form . The pa'al form given in the entry is a Modern Hebrew innovation from the same root. --WikiTiki89 17:00, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
