the trumpet-sounders
| Root | חצר (ḥ-ṣ-r) |
| Core Meanings | to enclose, surround, make an enclosure; (denominative) to sound a trumpet, cause a trumpet-blast |
| Semantic Range | to blow a trumpet, to sound an alarm, to signal with trumpet blasts, to make a ceremonial or liturgical proclamation |
| Conceptual Significance | Trumpet-sounding marked sacred assemblies, royal ceremonies, and moments of divine intervention in Israel’s worship and warfare. The act of causing the trumpet to sound signified proclamation, gathering, and the public announcement of covenantal or royal events. |
| Morphological Notes | Hiphil participle, masculine plural, absolute form (HVhrmpa). Functions substantivally to denote those performing the action of causing trumpet blasts. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is a Hiphil masculine plural participle absolute, indicating those who cause the trumpet to sound. Rendering it as "the trumpet-sounders" preserves the causative nuance of the Hiphil stem and reflects the masculine plural form. |
