Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

גָּעַשׁ prop. to push, to thrust, Germ. ftoßen. (Syr. ܓܥܰܫ to push with the horn, ftoßen.) Hence in the passive conjugations, to be concussed, moved, prop. hin= und hergeftoßen werden; and once also in Kal, Psalms 18:8, וַתִּגְעַשׁ וַתִּרְעַשׁ הָאָרֶץ “and the earth shook and trembled.” In the parallel place, 2 Samuel 22:8, it is Hithpael [כ׳ Kal], in which this signification is more frequent; the writer however appears to have used Kal intransitively, on account of the paronomasia of the verbs תִּגְעַשׁ, תִּרְעַשׁ.

Pual גֹּעַשׁ id.; Job 34:20, יְגֹעֲשׁוּ עָם וְיַעֲבֹ֑רוּ “the people shall be moved,” (i.e. shall totter) “and perish.”

Hithpael, to be moved, used of the earth, Psalms 18:8, and 2 Samuel 22:8, fin.; of the waves, Jeremiah 5:22, 46:7, Jeremiah 46:8.

Hithpoel, to stagger, to reel, as a drunken man, Jeremiah 25:16.
