[Mesorah] Kean

[Aharon Gal]

Using the two links below, I think I found  more than one translation to the word KEAN.
One of them is the one that we all know “Now”
but the other one is very intersting, and it fits the bible sources very well.
It says “intensifier” and it bring the verses:
“Hinne na yad’ati” - "ha kean yada ana” (Bereshith 12:11)
“im na matzati chen be’enechem” - “If I have found favor in your sight” - “Im Kean etshachact rachamin bechazutechem” (Bereshith 18:3)
