SIBI-P1 H802-30

his women/wives

Rootאשה (ʾ-š-h)
Core Meaningswomanhood, femaleness, wifehood, female person
Semantic Rangewoman, wife, female person, each one (in distributive sense), women of a household, marital partners
Conceptual Significanceאִשָּׁה marks covenantal and familial identity in Israelite society. As "wives," it signals household structure, inheritance, and covenant continuity; as "women," it denotes the female members of a group, often in contrast to men in communal or genealogical contexts.
Morphological NotesNoun, feminine common plural construct (נָשֵׁי) with 3ms suffix; irregular plural of אִשָּׁה ("woman"). The construct form links the plural noun to the possessive suffix.
Rendering RationaleThe noun derives from אשה, denoting a female person or wife. The form is feminine plural construct with a 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix ("his"), so the rendering preserves the feminine plural sense ("women/wives") and the possessive "his."
