SIBI-P1 H6239-07

richness

Rootעשר (ʿ-š-r)
Core Meaningsto be rich, to become wealthy, to enrich, abundance, prosperity
Semantic Rangematerial wealth, economic prosperity, abundance of possessions, affluence, figurative abundance or prosperity
Conceptual Significanceעֹשֶׁר often signifies tangible prosperity viewed as a sign of blessing, yet biblical wisdom literature also treats it as spiritually precarious, contrasting fleeting material richness with enduring covenantal faithfulness.
Morphological NotesCommon masculine singular noun in the absolute state; abstract noun formed from the verbal root עשר.
Rendering RationaleThe noun עֹשֶׁר derives from the root עשר, "to be rich/to become wealthy," and denotes the state or condition of abundance. As a masculine singular absolute noun (HNcmsa), it is best rendered as the singular abstract "richness," preserving both its grammatical form and its root sense of wealth as a condition rather than discrete items.
