SIBI-P1 H2505-15
he will apportion out
| Root | חלק (ḥ-l-q) |
| Core Meanings | smoothness, division, apportioning, distribution, flattery |
| Semantic Range | to divide, apportion, distribute, assign portions, share out, separate; in other stems, to be smooth or to flatter (smooth speech) |
| Conceptual Significance | The root connects the physical idea of smoothness with the act of dividing land, goods, or inheritance—often by lot (using smooth stones). It carries covenantal and tribal significance in the apportioning of the land of Israel, highlighting YHWH’s sovereign distribution of inheritance. |
| Morphological Notes | Verb from חָלַק in the Piel (HVpi3ms) and Niphal (HVNi3ms) stems; imperfect, third masculine singular. Piel conveys active/intensive division or distribution; Niphal expresses passive or reflexive sense ("be divided, be apportioned"). |
| Rendering Rationale | In the Piel imperfect 3ms (יְחַלֵּק), the verb expresses an active, intensive action: "he will apportion out" or "he will divide." This rendering preserves the core idea of dividing into portions (from the root sense of smooth separation) and accurately reflects the third masculine singular imperfect form; in Niphal occurrences (יֵחָלֵק), the sense becomes passive, "he will be apportioned." |
