b. usually in adverb phrases: — (a) as adverb accusative, (a) Exodus 33:5 אֶהָד׳ר for one moment, so ׳ר alone Isaiah 54:8; repeated Jeremiah 18:7,9 רֶגַע ֗֗֗ רֶגַע at another moment; . . . at another moment; (β) in a moment, suddenly, Psalm 6:11 יָשׁוּבוּ יֵבשׁוּ רָ֑גַע, Jeremiah 4:20; Isaiah 47:9; Job 34:20.
