SIBI-P1 H6256-01

at the appointed time

Rootעת (ʿ-t)
Core Meaningstime, season, appointed time, occasion
Semantic Rangetime, season, appointed time, proper time, occasion, circumstance; sometimes an opportune or divinely appointed moment
Conceptual Significanceעֵת often denotes not merely chronological time but a fitting or appointed season within divine ordering. It underscores the biblical view that events unfold according to set times under YHWH’s governance, highlighting themes of providence and timing.
Morphological NotesPreposition בְּ (“in/at”) prefixed with assimilated definite article to feminine singular noun עֵת (Ncbsa). The form is singular, absolute, and definite by virtue of the article.
Rendering RationaleThe noun עֵת is feminine singular absolute, here with a prefixed בְּ and the definite article (בָּעֵת), yielding “at the time.” Rendering it as “at the appointed time” preserves the sense of a specific, definite season or occasion inherent in the root while accurately reflecting the singular, definite form with the preposition.
