<div style="color:black;font: 10pt arial;">The reason I posted on my previous email are the correct reasons of why the <span style="font-style: italic;">HaTol </span>comes with a<span style="font-style: italic;"> Komatz</span>, and <span style="font-style: italic;">HaGeshem</span> does not come with <span style="font-style: italic;">Komatz</span>.
<div>Or in other words, why<span style="font-style: italic;"> HaTol</span> comes in <span style="font-style: italic;">Tzurath Hefse</span>k, and <span style="font-style: italic;">HaGeshem</span> comes with<span style="font-style: italic;"> Tzurath Hemshech</span>.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Yisrael Ben Davis listed ALL the <span style="font-style: italic;">Tzurath Hefsek</span> and<span style="font-style: italic;"> Hemshech</span> of all the words in the bible, including explanations, analysis, etc.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Take for example the word "<span style="font-style: italic;">Tal</span>" with <span style="font-style: italic;">Zakef Katon</span>. It appears twice with a <span style="font-style: italic;">Komatz</span>, and once with a<span style="font-style: italic;"> Patach</span>. If you read the three verses, you can see why in one of them it comes with a<span style="font-style: italic;"> Patac</span>h.</div>
<div>Take the word "Geshem" with a Zakef Katon and Gadol. It comes with a segol. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The only reason is the <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Tavnith</span>. </div>
<div>Rav Ya'akov Kaminetzki in his <span style="font-style: italic;">sefer</span> Emeth LeYa'akov wrote a different reason. But the<span style="font-style: italic;"> Emeth</span> is in the book of Yisrael Ben David.</div>

<div>I have a PDF copy of the book. Tell me if you are not convinced after you complete reading it....<br>

<div dir="ltr">As I have posted in the past, Shaar Hakollel explains that "Morid Hatol" <br clear="none">has a komatz because that phrase is not an integral part of the bracha <br clear="none">but an independent phrase that was dropped into it at a later date, so <br clear="none">it retains its original pausal form.
