SIBI-P1 H3027-02

in the hand of

Rootיד (y-d)
Core Meaningshand, power, control, agency, direction, possession
Semantic RangeLiteral hand; power; authority; control; possession; agency; means or instrument; side; direction; care or custody.
Conceptual Significance"Hand" in biblical Hebrew symbolizes power, authority, and active agency. To be "in the hand of" someone signifies being under their control or direction, often used of divine sovereignty or human dominion.
Morphological NotesPreposition ב ("in/by") prefixed to a feminine singular construct noun (Ncbsc) from יָד. The construct state requires a following genitive noun ("of …").
Rendering RationaleThe noun יָד (yad) literally means "hand," a feminine singular noun here in construct form, joined with the preposition ב ("in/by"). Rendering it as "in the hand of" preserves the concrete imagery of the singular hand while allowing for its extended sense of agency or control, which is central to the root’s meaning.
