a cut‑bond covenant
| Root | ברה (b-r-h) |
| Core Meanings | cutting, shaping, carving out, establishing by cutting |
| Semantic Range | covenant, treaty, alliance, pact, binding agreement between individuals, tribes, or between יהוה and His people |
| Conceptual Significance | בְּרִית is central to the theology of Scripture, expressing the formal, binding relationship established by יהוה with Noah, Abraham, Israel, and David. It frames redemption history as a series of divinely initiated and sustained binding commitments, often ratified by sacrificial cutting, underscoring both solemn obligation and faithful loyalty. |
| Morphological Notes | Hebrew noun, common feminine singular, appearing in both absolute (cfsa) and construct (cfsc) states; no pronominal suffix in the given forms. |
| Rendering Rationale | בְּרִית is a feminine singular noun meaning a covenant, traditionally understood as something ‘cut’ between parties. The rendering “cut‑bond covenant” preserves the underlying root sense of cutting while conveying the binding relational nature of the term. The singular form reflects the feminine singular morphology (HNcfsa/HNcfsc). |
