SIBI-P1 H7522-03

according to his pleasure

Rootרצה (r-ṣ-h)
Core Meaningsto be pleased with, to accept, to favor, to delight in
Semantic Rangepleasure, delight, favor, goodwill, acceptance, will, voluntary desire
Conceptual Significanceרָצוֹן often expresses the gracious favor or willing pleasure of a superior, especially of YHWH. It conveys not merely arbitrary will but a disposition of delight and acceptance, highlighting divine benevolence and relational approval in covenantal contexts.
Morphological NotesPreposition כְּ ("according to/as") + masculine singular noun רָצוֹן in construct form + 3ms pronominal suffix וֹ ("his"). The noun denotes an abstract quality (pleasure/favor) possessed by a masculine singular referent.
Rendering RationaleThe noun רָצוֹן (rātsôn) derives from the root רצה, expressing pleasure, favor, or acceptance. With the prefixed preposition כְּ ("according to") and the 3rd masculine singular suffix ("his"), the form literally means "according to his pleasure," preserving both the root sense of delighted favor and the masculine singular possessive morphology.
