kool ( רוּח , rūaḥ , "wind"; καταψύχω , katapsúchō , "to cool down"): "Cool of the day" (Genesis 3:8 , margin "wind"), when the evening breeze has tempered the heat of the day, enabling Orientals to walk abroad. "Cool my tongue" (Luke 16:24 ), a phrase reflecting the Jewish notion that Abraham had power to rescue his descendants from the fires of Hades.
