SIBI-P1 H6240-02

ten (feminine singular)

Rootעשר (ʿ-ś-r)
Core Meaningsten, group of ten, decimal unit, tithe
Semantic RangeThe number ten; by extension numbers formed with ten (e.g., teens), decimal groupings, and in some contexts ordinal senses ("-teenth") or grouped totals.
Conceptual SignificanceTen represents completeness or fullness in biblical thought (e.g., the Ten Words/Commandments, ten plagues). It often marks a complete set or divinely ordered structure within covenantal and legal contexts.
Morphological NotesAdjective, cardinal number; feminine singular absolute. Used in agreement with feminine nouns and in compound numbers (e.g., thirteen to nineteen in certain constructions).
Rendering RationaleThe form עֶשְׂרֵה is the feminine singular absolute form of the cardinal number derived from the root עשר, "ten." The rendering "ten (feminine singular)" preserves both the core numerical sense of the root and the grammatical gender and number indicated by the morphology (HAcfsa).
