SIBI-P1 H3671-28
and the wing-of
| Root | כנף (k-n-p̄) |
| Core Meanings | wing, extremity, edge, corner, covering extension |
| Semantic Range | a bird’s wing; the wing of an army; the edge or corner of a garment; the extremity of the earth; a pinnacle or projecting corner of a structure |
| Conceptual Significance | כָּנָף often conveys imagery of protection and covering (e.g., being sheltered under someone’s "wings"), as well as the idea of the farthest reaches or boundaries. It can symbolize both refuge and the outermost limits of land or structure in biblical thought. |
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וּ ("and") prefixed to a common feminine singular noun in construct state (Ncfsc). The construct form links the noun to a following genitive relationship. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun כָּנָף means "wing" or by extension an extremity or edge. The form is feminine singular construct ("wing-of"), showing possession or close association with what follows, and the prefixed וּ adds "and." Rendering it as "and the wing-of" preserves both the core image of an outstretched extremity and the grammatical construct relationship. |
