Rootספר (s-p-r)
Core Meaningscounting, recounting, recording, inscribing, enumerating
Semantic Rangescroll, book, written record, document, legal certificate, letter, census record, written account
Conceptual Significanceסֵפֶר represents the preservation of words through writing—whether covenant documents, genealogies, legal decrees, or divine remembrance. It reflects the cultural and theological importance of recorded testimony and the enduring authority of what is inscribed.
Morphological NotesPreposition ב ("in") prefixed to a masculine singular noun in the construct state (Ncmsc). The construct form indicates possession or association, "record/scroll of…".
Rendering RationaleThe noun סֵפֶר derives from the root ספר, meaning to count, recount, or record. Rendering it as "scroll-record" preserves the sense of something written that recounts or enumerates. The form is masculine singular construct with the prefixed preposition ב ("in"), requiring the relational sense "of" to complete the construct chain.
