89.82

Commanding to cross (the first [character 命], m- + [b]ing [mìng]; in the transmission text it is erroneously written as 令, which is incorrect. For the second [character 濟], j- + [j]i [jì]; Kong's commentary to the Book of Documents says: “'Ji' is like crossing over.” The Shuowen says: “It follows 水 (water) and has 齊 as its phonetic.” In ancient script it is written as 㴉, with the same sound and gloss. In the transmission text it is written as 濟, which is a vulgar character).
