to cause to wander
| Root | נוד (n-w-d) |
| Core Meanings | shaking, wavering, wandering, roaming, sympathetic shaking of the head |
| Semantic Range | to cause to wander, to drive into exile, to set in motion, to shake, to make someone roam as a fugitive; by extension, to unsettle or displace |
| Conceptual Significance | The root נוד often conveys instability and displacement—physical wandering or exile, as well as emotional expressions like shaking the head in sympathy or scorn. In causative form, it can reflect divine judgment that drives people into exile or forces instability, highlighting themes of covenant consequence and uprootedness in the biblical narrative. |
| Morphological Notes | Hiphil infinitive construct with prefixed לְ (preposition “to/for”), from the root נוד. The Hiphil stem expresses causation of the root action. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form לְהָנִיד is a Hiphil infinitive construct of נוד with a prefixed לְ, indicating purpose or result (“to…”). The Hiphil stem gives a causative sense, so the rendering “to cause to wander” preserves both the root idea of wavering/roaming and the grammatical force of the stem. |
