SIBI-P1 H3791-01
in a written record
| Root | כתב (k-t-v) |
| Core Meanings | write, inscribe, record, document |
| Semantic Range | writing, written document, record, decree, register, book, scripture |
| Conceptual Significance | Highlights the authority and permanence of written testimony in Israel’s tradition—whether legal decrees, covenantal stipulations, or sacred Scripture—emphasizing the enduring nature of what is formally recorded. |
| Morphological Notes | Preposition בְּ (“in”) prefixed to a masculine singular noun (Ncmsa/Ncmsc) from כָּתָב; no article; singular form maintained. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun כָּתָב denotes something written—an inscribed or recorded document—directly reflecting the root כתב (to write). The form is masculine singular (absolute/construct) with the prefixed preposition בְּ (“in”), so the rendering preserves the singular sense: “in a written record.” |
