SIBI-P1 H6442-03
the inner ones
| Root | פנה (p-n-h) |
| Core Meanings | to turn, to face, presence, surface, orientation |
| Semantic Range | inner, inward, interior, internal, innermost, private, within |
| Conceptual Significance | The term expresses the idea of what is turned inward or situated within, contrasting outer and inner realms. In biblical thought, this distinction often carries theological weight, highlighting the unseen or interior dimension of persons, spaces, or sacred structures. |
| Morphological Notes | Definite article (הַ) + adjective masculine plural absolute from פְּנִימִי; used substantively. The plural ending ־ִים marks masculine plural. |
| Rendering Rationale | פְּנִימִי derives from פָּנִים ("face, presence"), itself from the root פנה ("to turn, face"). As a masculine plural adjective with the definite article, it functions substantively here, hence "the inner ones," preserving both the sense of inward-facing/inner and the masculine plural form. |
