Rootשדה (ś-d-h)
Core Meaningsspreading out, open expanse, cultivated field, open country
Semantic Rangefield, cultivated land, open country, countryside, territory, land as opposed to city or house
Conceptual Significanceשָׂדֶה represents the open, cultivated spaces essential for agrarian life in ancient Israel, symbolizing livelihood, inheritance, and covenantal blessing tied to the land.
Morphological NotesConjunction וּ ("and") + noun masculine plural construct (שְׂדֵי) from שָׂדֶה. The construct state requires a following genitive complement.
Rendering RationaleThe noun שָׂדֶה derives from a root conveying the idea of spreading out, hence an open field or expanse. The form שְׂדֵי is masculine plural construct, so "fields of" preserves both the plural number and the construct relationship, while "spread-out" reflects the root sense. The prefixed וּ is rendered "and."
