she will be reckoned
| Root | חשב (ḥ-š-b) |
| Core Meanings | weaving, devising, accounting, reckoning, considering, planning |
| Semantic Range | to be accounted, be regarded, be considered, be imputed, be counted, be esteemed, be thought of as |
| Conceptual Significance | This verb often carries covenantal and legal weight in Scripture, especially in contexts of righteousness "being reckoned" or status being assigned. It reflects the Hebrew concept that standing, value, or identity can be accounted or credited, not merely inherent but recognized or assigned within relationship and judgment. |
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Niphal stem (passive/reflexive), imperfect, 3rd person feminine singular. The imperfect conveys incomplete or future action: "she will be reckoned" or "she is to be reckoned." |
| Rendering Rationale | The Niphal stem gives a passive or reflexive sense of the root חשב, "to reckon, account, or consider." As a 3rd feminine singular imperfect, the form means "she will be reckoned" (or "it will be reckoned" where the subject is grammatically feminine), preserving both the passive voice and feminine singular subject indicated by the morphology. |
