Path "Sifon HaGadim": How to understand it? It sounds like a description of a trip through a thicket, but in fact it is a symbol of inability and disorder. This expression originated among tree felling workers. Cutting trees and pulling heavy tree logs is hard work that requires skill. If the worker was lazy or inexperienced, he did not carve a path for himself, but dragged the log straight through fallen branches and trunks (tree logs). The log kept getting stuck, flipping side to side, and the work moved slowly and crookedly. Later, the meaning broadened: it began to be called any business done carelessly, somehow, hesitantly and without attention and diligence. Even though today we no longer carry tree logs in the forest, we still work "through the thicket" when we lack enough strength, will, or skills to bring the work to precise and rapid implementation.
