SIBI-P1 H702-01
four (feminine form)
| Root | רבע (r-b-ʿ) |
| Core Meanings | four, fourfoldness, quartering, squareness |
| Semantic Range | the number four; four items or persons; fourfold grouping; by extension, the four directions or quarters |
| Conceptual Significance | The number four frequently symbolizes totality in relation to the created order (e.g., four corners of the earth, four winds). It conveys completeness in spatial or earthly dimensions within biblical thought. |
| Morphological Notes | Cardinal number, feminine singular absolute (HAcfsa). In Hebrew, the feminine form of "four" often modifies masculine nouns due to gender polarity in numerals. |
| Rendering Rationale | The term אַרְבַּע is the feminine singular form of the cardinal number derived from the root רבע, denoting fourfoldness. The rendering "four (feminine form)" preserves the specific grammatical gender indicated by the morphology (feminine singular absolute), which in Hebrew numerals reflects gender agreement conventions. |
