SIBI-P1 H2266-20
they will bind themselves together
| Root | חבר (ḥ-b-r) |
| Core Meanings | to join, bind, unite, associate, ally, connect, charm by binding |
| Semantic Range | to join together, unite, ally oneself, associate closely, be in fellowship, conspire, form a league, bind by charm or spell |
| Conceptual Significance | The verb often conveys covenantal or communal attachment—whether in righteous fellowship or harmful alliance. It reflects the biblical emphasis on the power and consequence of binding oneself to others, whether in covenant faithfulness or in illicit association. |
| Morphological Notes | Hithpael imperfect, 3rd person masculine plural (יִתְחַבָּרוּ); reflexive/reciprocal stem expressing future or incomplete action performed by a masculine plural subject upon themselves. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root חבר conveys the idea of joining or binding together. In the Hithpael imperfect (3rd masculine plural), the verb is reflexive/reciprocal, indicating that "they" (masculine plural) act upon themselves—thus "they will bind themselves together," preserving both the root sense of joining and the reflexive stem. |
