| 1372 | ENT_CAN_MOT | received_as | ENT_ISR_SHEOL | high | Mot (Death, Ugaritic) as devouring underworld power whose "throat is a pit, gullet a grave" (KTU 1.5 II 2–4) parallels Hebrew Sheol personified as appetite: "Sheol enlarges its throat and opens its mouth without limit" (Isaiah 5:14; cf. Habakkuk 2:5; Proverbs 1:12). Both are dark underworld powers described through the metaphor of an insatiable devouring mouth. DDD_BIBLE s.v. "Mot" identifies the imagery as continuous. | SRC_UGARIT_DDD | reviewed | PER_ISR_EXILIC |
