Almost every generation of Christian and Jewish commentators has been puzzled by the enigmatic syntax and imagery reflected in the Hebrew text. In this paper, I will try to offer new insights into one of the most intriguing choices of the Syriac Peshitta translator – namely, the translation of the Hebrew «dew» (טַל) with the Syriac noun «child» (ܛܠܝܐ).
