SIBI-P1 H5088-09
his binding-vow
| Root | נדר (n-d-r) |
| Core Meanings | vowing, dedicating, binding oneself by promise, consecrating by pledge |
| Semantic Range | a vow made to God; a solemn promise; that which is vowed; a pledged offering dedicated to YHWH |
| Conceptual Significance | In the Hebrew Bible, a נֶדֶר represents a voluntary but binding commitment made before God. Once uttered, it carries moral and covenantal weight, reflecting the seriousness of speech and the expectation of faithful fulfillment before YHWH. |
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine singular noun in construct form (נִדְר־) with a 3ms pronominal suffix (־וֹ), yielding "his vow." Occurs three times in this suffixed form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun נֶדֶר derives from the root נדר, "to vow" or "to bind oneself by a promise." The form is masculine singular in construct with a 3rd masculine singular suffix, meaning "his vow." Rendering it "his binding-vow" preserves both the idea of a solemn self-binding pledge and the singular masculine possessive indicated by the morphology. |
