Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

גָּרַשׁ prop. to drive, to thrust (like the Ch.). In Kal specially

(1) to expel, as people from a land, Exodus 34:11. But in this signification much more use is made of Piel. Used of inanimate things, Isaiah 57:20, “the wicked are like the troubled sea which cannot rest, וַיִּנְרְשׁוּ מֵימָיו רֶפֶשׁ וָטִיט whose waters cast forth mire and dirt.” Also to put away, to divorce a wife. Part. pass. גְּרוּשָׁה a (wife) put away, Leviticus 21:7, 14 Leviticus 21:14, 22:13 Numbers 30:10; Ezekiel 44:22.

(2) to plunder, to spoil; Ezekiel 36:5, לְמַעַן מִגְרַשָׁהּ לָבַז “that they may spoil it (the land) for prey;” מִגְרָשׁ is here an infinitive of the Aramean form. In the derivatives also

(3) to put forth fruit; see גֶּרֶשׁ, and

(4) to drive cattle to pasture; see מִגְּרָשׁ.

Piel גֵּרֵשׁ to expel, to drive out, with an accusat. of pers. Genesis 3:24, 4:14 21:10 and מִן of the place from which any one is driven, Exodus 11:1; Judges 11:7 גֵּרֵשׁ מִפְּנֵי פ׳ to drive out before one, i.e. so that thou mayest put him to flight, e. g. God, the Canaanites before Israel, Exodus 23:29, 31 Exodus 23:31; Judges 2:3.

Pual גֹּרַשׁ pass. Exodus 12:39.

Niphal

(1) to be expelled, Jonah 2:5.

(2) to be carried off by the violence of water, Amos 8:8, נִגְרְשָׁה וְנִשְׁקָה בִּיאוֹר מִצְרַיִם “it is carried off and inundated as by the river of Egypt.”

(3) to be driven, agitated, as the sea; Isaiah 57:20, יָם נִגְּרָשׁ “the troubled sea.”

Hence are derived מִגְרָשׁ and the words immediately following.
