the Passing-Over
| Root | פסח (p-s-ḥ) |
| Core Meanings | to pass over, to skip, to spare, to exempt |
| Semantic Range | the act of passing over or sparing; the Passover event in Egypt; the annual festival commemorating that event; the sacrificial lamb associated with the observance |
| Conceptual Significance | פֶּסַח marks YHWH’s sparing of Israelite households during the final plague in Egypt and becomes the foundational memorial of deliverance and covenant identity. It encapsulates divine judgment and mercy—passing over in protection while striking Egypt—shaping Israel’s liturgical calendar and redemptive memory. |
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common masculine singular absolute with prefixed definite article (הַ). Functions as a substantive referring to the specific event, festival, or sacrificial offering. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun פֶּסַח derives from the root פסח, "to pass over" or "to spare." Rendering it as "the Passing-Over" preserves the verbal action embedded in the noun while reflecting the definite article ("the") and the masculine singular absolute form shown in the morphology. |
