Be useful/fit for/suitable for/appropriate Explanation: . הוֹעִיל, הָיָה לְתוֹעֶלֶת וּלְעֵזֶר: "מַה-יִּסְכָּן-לָךְ, מָה אֹעִיל מֵחַטָּאתִי?" (איוב לה ג). "הוֹכֵחַ בְּדָבָר לֹא יִסְכּוֹן וּמִלִּים לֹא-יוֹעִיל בָּם" (איוב טו ג). "מְקוֹם לֹא יוֹעִיל הוֹן וְלֹא יִסְכֹּן קִנְיָן" (חובות הלבבות, בקשה). 2.ח [בהשאלה] הִתְאִים, הָיָה מְסֻגָּל: "הוּא לֹא יִסְכֹּן לְהוֹרָאָה בָּאָרֶץ" (ברנר, א 334). "עֲנָק זֶה לֹא יִסְכֹּן לְחַיֵּי הַמִּשְׁמַעַת שֶׁל הַצָּבָא" (בר יוסף, בני 47). הַכְּלִי הַיָּשָׁן לֹא יִסְכֹּן עוֹד לְשׁוּם דָּבָר. In each case it will be different. |
