SIBI-P1 H6588-16
rebellion
| Root | פשׁע (p-š-ʿ) |
| Core Meanings | breaking away, rebellion, breach of authority, revolt |
| Semantic Range | rebellion against authority, revolt, breach of covenant, transgression, apostasy, willful offense |
| Conceptual Significance | פשׁע often describes covenantal rebellion against יהוה or rightful rulers, highlighting deliberate rupture of loyalty. It carries relational and political weight, portraying sin not merely as error but as defiant breach of allegiance. |
| Morphological Notes | Occurs here as a Qal perfect 3ms verb ("he rebelled") and as a masculine singular common noun in the absolute state ("rebellion"). The root conveys active breach in the verb and the resulting state or act in the noun. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun form (masculine singular absolute) denotes an act of breaking away from rightful authority. "Rebellion" preserves the root sense of willful breach and revolt inherent in פשׁע, rather than a generic moral failing, and accurately reflects the singular masculine noun form. |
