increase-grain

Rootדגה (d-g-h)
Core Meaningsincrease, multiplication, fertility, abundance
Semantic Rangegrain, cereal crops, harvested produce, agricultural yield, staple food supply
Conceptual Significanceדָּגָן represents the tangible increase of the land and is a primary sign of covenant blessing, prosperity, and divine provision. Its abundance or lack serves as an indicator of faithfulness and judgment within Israel’s covenant relationship with יהוה.
Morphological NotesCommon masculine singular noun in the absolute state (HNcmsa). Functions as a collective or mass noun referring to harvested grain.
Rendering RationaleThe noun דָּגָן is a masculine singular absolute form, rendered here as the singular mass noun "increase-grain" to preserve both its grammatical singularity and its derivation from a root meaning "to increase" or "multiply." This rendering keeps the agricultural sense of grain while foregrounding the idea of produce as the land’s increase.
