the song
| Root | שׁיר (sh-y-r) |
| Core Meanings | singing, song, lyrical expression, musical utterance |
| Semantic Range | song, hymn, lyrical poem, musical composition, the act of singing (by extension) |
| Conceptual Significance | In the Hebrew Bible, a שִׁיר often marks moments of praise, victory, lament, or covenant remembrance. Songs function as communal memory and theological proclamation, embedding divine acts and truths into Israel’s worship and identity. |
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular noun (absolute state) with prefixed definite article הַ; no suffixes; from root שׁיר "to sing." |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun שִׁיר derives from the root שׁיר, meaning "to sing." The form is masculine singular absolute with the definite article (הַ), so "the song" accurately reflects both the lexical sense (a sung composition) and the definite singular morphology. |
