Rootעשר (ʿ-ś-r)
Core Meaningsten, tenth, group of ten, numerical completeness
Semantic Rangea tenth part, tithe, tenth portion of produce, livestock, or goods; the act or obligation of giving a tenth
Conceptual SignificanceThe “tenth-portion” represents a consecrated share set apart for YHWH, often supporting the Levites and the sanctuary. It expresses covenantal acknowledgment that all provision comes from Elohim and that a complete tenth returns to Him as an act of trust and obedience.
Morphological NotesMasculine singular noun in construct state from מַעֲשֵׂר, derived from the root עשר (“ten”). The construct form links it grammatically to a following noun (e.g., “tenth of the produce”).
Rendering RationaleThe noun derives from the root עשר (“ten”) and denotes a tenth part. The morphology (HNcmsc) identifies it as a masculine singular noun in the construct state, requiring a relational rendering such as “tenth-portion-of” to reflect its bound form.
