For what it's worth, Dahood (Psalms 1. Garden City: Doubleday, 1965.
Anchor Bible Series) reads "man (mem-nun)" for the Masoretic "min"
and equating it with ... (wait for it) the Ugaritic "m-n", in
English "who" or "how many." Thus mini not mi-ni.<br>
<br>
Levity, folks. If we're in Pslams Hell, then Dahood MUST be cited.<br>

<b>14</b> Out of Ephraim came they whose root is in Amalek;
