there (in that place)

Rootשם (sh-m)
Core Meaningsplace, location, there, thither, then
Semantic Rangethere, in that place, thither, from there, then (in a temporal sense), in it
Conceptual Significanceשָׁם anchors events to specific, often theologically significant locations—places of covenant, revelation, judgment, or deliverance—emphasizing that YHWH’s acts occur in real and remembered settings.
Morphological NotesIndeclinable Hebrew adverb/particle of place, sometimes extended temporally (“then”). No inflection for gender, number, or person.
Rendering RationaleThe adverb שָׁם denotes location, pointing to a specific place previously mentioned or implied. Rendering it as "there (in that place)" preserves its demonstrative-locative force while reflecting its indeclinable adverbial form (HD), which carries no gender, number, or person distinctions.
