# therewith

adverb (therewith) (old use)

«therewith» in the English dictionary: in Jewish tradition and Early Modern English — its meanings, how the lessons use it, and examples, each with its tree on Mova.

## In Jewish tradition

Old word for "with it." The Torah uses it for anointing with oil or for what a priest does with an offering.

**Interpretation.** Anointing "therewith" the Tent and its furnishings is read as making them holy and set apart for God's service. In the primary lessons: in old tales, a character adds something and says it in the same breath
