SIBI-P1 H259-19

as one

Rootאחד (ʾ-ḥ-d)
Core Meaningsunity, oneness, singularity, wholeness, being united
Semantic Rangeone (number), first, each, single, united, together, unique, alone
Conceptual Significanceאֶחָד is central to biblical expressions of unity and uniqueness, most notably in declarations of divine oneness (e.g., the Shema). It conveys not merely numerical singularity but also the idea of unified wholeness or collective unity acting as a single entity.
Morphological NotesPreposition כְ ("as, like") prefixed to adjective אֶחָד; masculine singular absolute form.
Rendering RationaleThe preposition כְ means "as" or "like," joined to אֶחָד, a masculine singular adjective meaning "one" or "united." The rendering "as one" preserves the singular, unified sense of the masculine singular absolute form while reflecting the comparative force of the prefixed כְ.
