SIBI-P1 H8451-06
the Instruction
| Morphological Notes | Noun common feminine singular absolute with prefixed definite article (הַ). No pronominal suffix. Derived noun from the Hiphil sense of ירה (to cause to know, instruct). |
| Rendering Rationale | תּוֹרָה derives from the root ירה, "to instruct" or "to direct." As a feminine singular noun with the definite article (Ncfsa with prefixed ה), הַתּוֹרָה is best rendered "the Instruction," preserving both the root sense of directed teaching and the definite, singular, feminine form indicated by the morphology. |
