SIBI-P1 H3581-13
firm-strength
| Root | כח (k-ḥ) |
| Core Meanings | firmness, solidity, vigor, force, capacity |
| Semantic Range | physical strength, might, power, capacity, ability, resources, wealth, productive force, and in some contexts even hardy creatures (by extension of toughness). |
| Conceptual Significance | כֹּחַ often describes both human and divine strength—physical, military, economic, or spiritual. In biblical theology, true firm-strength ultimately belongs to יהוה, who grants or withholds human capacity and power, underscoring dependence upon divine source rather than self-derived might. |
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine singular noun (absolute or construct). No pronominal suffix. Appears in both absolute (HNcmsa) and construct (HNcmsc) states in the provided forms. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun כֹּחַ derives from a root conveying firmness or solidity, hence strength as that which is firmly established or enduring. "Firm-strength" preserves this underlying sense of solid, enduring force while reflecting the masculine singular noun form found in the morphology. |
