I realize I am in way over my head (and, R' Micha, feel free to bounce
this back to Avodah, or wherever it should go)<br><br>
I should have done this beforehand, but I looked at Jastrow, and it
refers ZV"D to ZY"D, where he simply lists two
definitions. He also gives a reference to Sanhedrin (69a, around 8
lines from the top) which brings up this very issue.<br><br>
The Gemara takes the pasuk from Shemos 21:14 ("V'chi yazid
ish..." "if a man acts intentionally") and then
interprets the verse energetically, suggesting a meaning derived from
"cook". "Mai mashma" that it can mean
cook? Then it points to the pasuk we started with "Yaakov
cooked a dish..."<br><br>
I have no idea where this leads us: might it be the same shoresh with two
different meanings? (And, if so, I still want to ask: if
"yazid", even while meaning "plan" has a connotation
of cooking, sort of -- is it that unreasonably for yazid (cook) to have a
connotation of planning, when the Torah could have used B-SH-L. I
realize, as R Micha pointed out, this doesn't exactly fit the standard
narrative quite so easily).<br><br>
(It also occurred to me that, in English, "prepare" has the
same two, somewhat, similar meanings: one can "prepare" a
dish/meal, and one can "prepare" (i.e., plan) one's
actions).<br><br>
FWIW,<br><br>

What I meant to write was that n'zid is not from the shoresh NZ"D
which doesn't exist but was made from ZV"D with the meaning of the
hif'il of ZV"D.<br><br>
Again I wote before putting my mind into gear. BTW, I walked the 40
meters to shul and got to mincha just in time for the chazarat
hasha"tz. <br><br>
