SIBI-P1 H2764-07

the devoted-to-destruction thing

Morphological NotesNoun, common masculine singular absolute with prefixed definite article (הַ). No pronominal suffix. From root חרם.
Rendering RationaleThe noun חֵרֶם derives from the root חרם, conveying the idea of something set apart under a ban, often for destruction. The form is masculine singular absolute with the definite article ("the"), so the rendering preserves both its singularity and definiteness while expressing its root sense of being devoted under a ban to destruction.
