plenty of camels but no rope!
#1
I checked Matthew 19:24 in Paul's Interlinear yesterday and noted that a "rope" passed through the eye of a needle and not the obligatory "camel".

As an exercise I went and looked up the aramaic word "fmgl" (root fmg) in the lexicon on this site and it displayed several meanings: camel, dromedary, and beam - but not rope!

Why is rope not in the lexicon? Or why is the word rope used and not camel in the interlinear translation?
