But, if you understand Hebrew...you know you have to take a form of a word back to it's root, but you can't take a root forward to another form not used. Since the root is used, but not the noun form shekinah, you can't say that shakan equals shekinah. You could, however, find a verse with shekinah (if such a thing existed) and use the meaning of that word, plus the meaning of shakan, to more fully understand the meaning intended.
