מסל   n.m.  pathway


  pathway  Qumran.  GenApoc 6.3 : והוית מהלך בשבילי אמת עלמא וער֗מי קדיש[٠ ]٠א٠ ^ב^מסלי א֗ר֗ח֗ת קושט  I would walk in the paths of eternal truth, the Holy One's difficult roads, and in the pathways of truth.

Possibly simply pl. const. of the BH form מסלה; though that form is always מְסִלּוֹת. In any case, since the root and meaning do not otherwise occur in Aramaic, a Hebraism.
