SIBI-P1 H7651-10
their seven
| Root | שׁבע (sh-b-ʿ) |
| Core Meanings | seven, fullness, completeness, sacred totality, oath-binding |
| Semantic Range | The number seven; a full or complete set; sevenfold measure; by extension a week; symbolically completeness or sacred fullness; conceptually linked to oath-making (from the cognate verb שָׁבַע, “to swear”). |
| Conceptual Significance | Seven in biblical thought signifies completeness, sacred order, and covenant fullness. Its association with oath-making reflects the idea of binding oneself to a complete and solemn commitment, reinforcing themes of covenant and divine order. |
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular cardinal noun in construct (שְׁבַעְתָּ) with 3mp pronominal suffix (-ם), functioning as “their seven” or “seven of them.” |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun שֶׁבַע (“seven”) appears in the masculine singular construct form with a 3rd person masculine plural pronominal suffix, yielding literally “their seven.” The rendering preserves the cardinal sense of the root while accurately reflecting the construct relationship and the masculine plural suffix (“their”). |
