SIBI-P1 H3532-09
and young rams
| Root | כבש (k-b-ś) |
| Core Meanings | subdue, bring into bondage, dominate, tread down |
| Semantic Range | male lamb, year-old ram, sacrificial lamb, young sheep suitable for offering |
| Conceptual Significance | Young rams (כְּבָשִׂים) are central to Israel’s sacrificial system, frequently specified in burnt offerings and peace offerings. They represent valuable livestock and symbolize dedication, atonement, and covenantal worship within the cultic life of Israel. |
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וּ prefixed to masculine plural absolute noun כְּבָשִׂים (kebasim); no pronominal suffix; common masculine plural absolute form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun כֶּבֶשׂ (kebes) refers to a male lamb, often a year-old ram, likely reflecting the root idea of strength or butting dominance. The form is masculine plural absolute (Ncmpa) with a prefixed conjunction וּ (“and”), so the rendering preserves both the plural masculine sense and the conjunction: “and young rams.” |
