SIBI-P1 H2374-03
the vision-beholder
| Root | חזה (ḥ-z-h) |
| Core Meanings | to see, behold, perceive, gaze upon, see in vision |
| Semantic Range | seer, prophetic visionary, one who perceives divine revelation, gazer (including star-gazer), observer of visions |
| Conceptual Significance | In the Hebrew Bible, the חֹזֶה is a recognized prophetic figure distinguished by receiving revelation through sight or vision. The term highlights the experiential and visual dimension of prophecy, emphasizing divine disclosure through revealed sight rather than mere speech. |
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular absolute form with prefixed definite article (הַ). Morphologically a Qal active participle functioning as a substantive ("one who sees"), hence "the one who beholds." |
| Rendering Rationale | The term derives from the root חזה, "to see" or "to behold in vision," and appears here with the definite article as a masculine singular active participle used substantively. "The vision-beholder" preserves the participial force (one who is actively seeing) and the visionary nuance inherent in the root, while reflecting the masculine singular definite form. |
