SIBI-P1 H776-04

their**firm-ground**

Rootארץ (ʾ-r-ṣ)
Core Meaningsfirmness, solidity, ground, territory, domain
Semantic RangeEarth (cosmic), land/country, ground/soil, region/territory, nation (idiomatically), wilderness, world.
Conceptual Significanceאֶרֶץ symbolizes God's created order and the Promised Land as covenant territory, central to Israel's identity, exile motifs, and eschatological restoration; the 3mp form often denotes 'their land' in contexts of loss or return, underscoring themes of divine sovereignty over human domains.
Morphological NotesHNcbsc/Sp3mp: Noun, common gender, basic form, singular, construct state with 3rd person masculine plural suffix (־ָם 'their').
Rendering RationaleThis rendering preserves the root's probable meaning of 'to be firm' by using 'firm-ground,' evoking the earth's solid stability, while directly reflecting the morphology as a feminine noun in construct state (Ncbs) with 3mp pronominal suffix ('their,' masculine plural possessors). It maintains grammatical gender (inherent feminine of אֶרֶץ), number (singular construct), and person (3mp suffix) without altering English gender markers where not applicable.
