What is the meaning of "Yisnagfu"?

1.

Rashi: They will stumble [Radak - like one who walks in the dark. He bangs his foot on a rock, like Yeshayah (30:6) prophesized about them "Masa Bahamos Negev."

4)

What are "Harei Nashef"?

7)

What is the meaning of "v'Shis la'Arafel"?

1.

Rashi: It is to turn the light to darkness. Radak - this is a repetition of "v'Samah l'Tzalmaves" in different words. Shis is Makor (like an infinitive); it is written Yashis; both of these are like Yasim (to put).
