SIBI-P1 `H5985-01`

the Ammonite-woman

Root	עמם (ʿ-m-m)
Core Meanings	people, kin, clan, tribal community
Semantic Range	A woman belonging to the nation or lineage of Ammon; an Ammonite by birth or ethnic identity.
Conceptual Significance	Ammon was a neighboring kin-nation descended from Lot, often in tension with Israel. References to an "Ammonite-woman" frequently highlight issues of intermarriage, covenant boundaries, and Israel’s relationship with surrounding peoples.
Morphological Notes	Definite article (הָ) + feminine singular gentilic noun in the absolute state; no pronominal suffix. The form denotes a single female member of the people of Ammon.
Rendering Rationale	The term is the feminine singular gentilic form of עַמּוֹן (Ammon), itself derived from the root relating to "people" or "kin." The rendering "Ammonite-woman" preserves the ethnic derivation from the kin-group Ammon and accurately reflects the feminine singular form with the definite article ("the").
