These signify, in turn, "to change" "to exchange," "to turn," "to put or place," "to make other" i.e. "alter," "to disguise oneself." chalaph, and its derivatives, occuring often, indicates "to pass away," hence, alter, renew, e.g.:

(1) "changes of raiment" (Genesis 45:22 Judges 14:12, 13, 19);

(2) "changed my wages ten times" (Genesis 31:7, 41);

(3) heavens changed "as a vesture" (Psalm 102:26);

(4) "changes and warfare" (Job 10:17), i.e. relays of soldiers as illustrated in 1 Kings 5:14 (the Revised Version, margin "host after host is against me");
