SIBI-P1 H7970-08

three-tens

Rootשלש (š-l-š)
Core Meaningsthree, triad, threefold pattern, grouping in threes
Semantic Rangethirty (cardinal), thirtieth (ordinal by context), a unit of thirty (years, men, days, shekels, etc.)
Conceptual SignificanceAs a multiple of three, thirty reflects the Hebrew pattern of numerical symbolism built on triads. It often marks significant periods (such as thirty years of age for service) or structured groups (such as the "Thirty" warriors), emphasizing completeness within an intensified threefold framework.
Morphological NotesMasculine plural absolute cardinal number (HAcbpa), from שָׁלוֹשׁ (three), functioning adjectivally or substantivally to denote the number thirty; occasionally used in an ordinal sense ("thirtieth") by context.
Rendering RationaleThe form שְׁלֹשִׁים is the masculine plural cardinal number built from the root שלש ("three"). Rendering it as "three-tens" preserves its transparent derivation from "three" while accurately conveying the masculine plural cardinal sense of "thirty."
