Rare Trope Phrases


There are a number of Tropes that appear very rarely in the Tanach:

SHALSHELET:שַלשֶ֓לֶת

MERCHA CHEFULAH:מֵרכָא-כְפלָ֦ה

YERAKH BEN YOMO:יֶרַח-בֶּן-יוֹמ֪וֹ

KARNEI PARAH:קַרְנֵי-ָר֟ה

SHALSHELET always appears by itself and is found only four times in the Torah - in Genesis 19:16, 24:12, and 39:8, as well as in Leviticus 8:23. The word with SHALSHELET is always followed by a PASEIK. Shalshelet replaces a Segol, and there is no “helper” or “joiner” before it.MERCHA CHEFULAH appears only five times in the Torah and always appears after a DARGA. These are the five places the MERCHA CHEFULAH appears in the Torah - in Genesis 27:25, Exodus 5:15, Leviticus 10:1, Numbers 14:3, and Numbers 32:42.YEREKH BEN YOMO appears twice in all of the Jewish canon of texts. Once in the Torah - Numbers 35:5 - proceeded by a MUNACH and followed by a KARNEI PARAH, and again in Megillat Esther (7:9).Press "Next" in the Lesson Navigator below and learn the melody for these rare Tropes.
