> So we've seen that {pab} can take various objects: {lurDech} "tradition", {ghob} "ethics, virtue", {'Ip} "oath", and {nab} "plan". It can also be used without an expressed object, as in the idiom/phrase {lay' 'ej batlh pab} "keep one's word of honor".
Unless the object is batlh. Makes sense as batlh is analogous to ghob.
