Could someone tell me what alive means in this verse?
15 Let death come deceitfully upon them; Let them go down alive to Sheol, For evil is in their dwelling, in their midst.
The word is quick in KJV.
15 Let deathH4194 seizeH5377 uponH5921 them, and let them go downH3381 quickH2416 into hell:H7585 forH3588 wickednessH7451 is in their dwellings,H4033 and amongH7130 them.
H2416-From H2421; alive; hence raw (flesh); fresh (plant, water, year), strong; also (as noun, especially in the feminine singular and masculine plural) life (or living thing), whether literally or figuratively: - + age, alive, appetite, (wild) beast, company, congregation, life (-time), live (-ly), living (creature, thing), maintenance, + merry, multitude, + (be) old, quick, raw, running, springing, troop.
H2421-A prim root (compare H2331, H2424); to live, whether literally or figuratively; causatively to revive: - keep (leave, make) alive, X certainly, give (promise) life, (let, suffer to) live, nourish up, preserve (alive), quicken, recover, repair, restore (to life), revive, (X God) save (alive, life, lives), X surely, be whole.
There are a lot of definitions here so I am not sure which one the bold typed words are referring to.
