and a hundred
| Root | מאה (m-ʾ-h) |
| Core Meanings | hundred, full measure, complete unit of count |
| Semantic Range | Literal hundred; a counted unit in censuses and measurements; a large rounded number; multiplicative sense (hundredfold); fractional sense (one-hundredth) in certain constructions. |
| Conceptual Significance | The number often conveys fullness or substantial completeness in biblical thought, appearing in contexts of blessing (e.g., hundredfold return), military organization, census accounting, and covenantal abundance. |
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וּ (“and”) + cardinal numeral feminine singular absolute מֵאָה. Functions adjectivally or substantivally in counting; agrees in gender with counted noun when applicable. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form consists of the conjunction וְ/וּ (“and”) prefixed to the feminine singular cardinal numeral מֵאָה (“a hundred”). The rendering preserves the additive force of the conjunction and the singular feminine numeral form, accurately reflecting the morphology HC/Acbsa. |
