SIBI-P1 H2022-21
from the mountain of
| Root | הרר (h-r-r) |
| Core Meanings | mountain, hill, elevated height, high place |
| Semantic Range | literal mountain or hill; hill country; elevated terrain; symbol of political power or kingdom; site of worship or divine encounter |
| Conceptual Significance | Mountains in the Hebrew Bible are places of revelation, covenant, refuge, and divine rule (e.g., Sinai, Zion). As elevated and enduring features of the landscape, they symbolize stability, prominence, and proximity to the divine presence. |
| Morphological Notes | Preposition מִן (“from”) prefixed to a masculine singular noun in construct state (Ncmsc). The noun הַר (“mountain”) appears without the article and in construct form, indicating dependence on a following noun. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form מֵהַר consists of the preposition מִן (“from”) in assimilated form (מֵ) attached to הַר in the masculine singular construct state. The construct form requires a following genitive (“mountain of…”), so the rendering preserves both the ‘from’ preposition and the construct relationship inherent in the morphology. |
