SIBI-P1 H899-07
his coverings
| Root | בגד (b-g-d) |
| Core Meanings | covering, concealment, acting covertly, treachery |
| Semantic Range | garment, clothing, robe, outer covering; by extension treachery or unfaithful dealing (from the verbal root) |
| Conceptual Significance | Garments in the Hebrew Bible signify identity, status, and moral condition (e.g., priestly vestments, garments of mourning, symbolic clothing of righteousness). The connection of בגד to treachery underscores a conceptual link between outward covering and hidden intent, enriching prophetic wordplay and theological reflection on faithfulness versus concealment. |
| Morphological Notes | Masculine plural noun in construct form (בְּגָדֵי) with 3ms pronominal suffix (־ו), yielding "his coverings/garments." |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root בגד, whose core idea involves covering or acting covertly, later extended metaphorically to treachery. As a masculine plural construct with a 3rd person masculine singular suffix, the form means "coverings of him," hence "his coverings," preserving both the plural form and the possessive suffix. |
