their inner-heart
| Root | לבב (l-b-b) |
| Core Meanings | inner heart, inner self, mind, will, seat of thought and desire |
| Semantic Range | inner person, mind, understanding, will, courage, intention, moral character, conscience, emotional core |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical thought, the לֵבָב is the center of cognition, volition, and moral response—not merely emotion. It represents the true inner orientation of a person or people before יהוה, the place of covenant loyalty, rebellion, wisdom, or repentance. |
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular noun in construct (לְבָב) with 3rd person masculine plural pronominal suffix (־ָם), literally "heart of them." Though grammatically singular, it often functions collectively for a group’s shared inner disposition. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun לֵבָב denotes the inner heart—the deepest interior seat of thought and will. The form is masculine singular in construct with a third masculine plural suffix ("of them"), so the rendering preserves the singular sense (“heart”) while marking possession (“their”). |
