from gold
| Root | זהב (z-h-b) |
| Core Meanings | shimmering, gleaming, gold, golden radiance |
| Semantic Range | literal gold (the precious metal), gold as material for objects, golden color, figurative brightness or preciousness |
| Conceptual Significance | Gold in the biblical text signifies wealth, purity, royal splendor, and sacred craftsmanship, especially in the construction of the Tabernacle and Temple, symbolizing enduring value and radiant glory. |
| Morphological Notes | Noun common masculine singular construct (Ncmsc) with prefixed preposition מִן assimilated (מִזְּהַב). The doubling of ז reflects assimilation of the nun of מִן. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun זָהָב is masculine singular, and here it appears in construct form with the prefixed preposition מִן ("from"), yielding "from gold." This rendering preserves the singular masculine sense of the noun and reflects the prefixed preposition indicated in the morphology. |
