Brown-Driver-Briggs Expanded Definition

מֶ֫שֶׁק noun [masculine] acquisition, possession (?; meaning conjectured from context, from analogy of מִמְשָׁק q. v., and of משׁך), only וּבֶןמֶֿשֶׁק בֵּיתִי הוּאדַּמֶּשֶׂק אֱלִיעֶזֶר Genesis 15:2 (compare בן

8 (λ), above; Ges^{§ 128}. 2, R. 2. c) and the son of acquisition (= he who is to acquire, the heir of) my house is, etc.; ׳מ possibly changed from משׁך (compare Job 28:18) for word-play with דמשׂק, Kau and So^{Gn. Anm. 62}, or by copyist's error, but very dubious. ᵐ5 Μασεκ (proper name, compare Lag^{BN 78}).
