SIBI-P1 `H2677-19`

and a half-portion

Root	חצה (ḥ-ṣ-h)
Core Meanings	divide, split, halve, apportion
Semantic Range	half, half-portion, middle, midst, mid-point (e.g., midnight), divided part, share
Conceptual Significance	חֵצִי often appears in contexts of measured distribution—land allotments, offerings, time divisions—emphasizing ordered division and apportionment within covenant life. It reflects the biblical concern with precise boundaries, measured inheritance, and structured sacred time.
Morphological Notes	Conjunction וָ־ ("and") prefixed to a masculine singular absolute noun (חֵצִי). No pronominal suffix; absolute state.
Rendering Rationale	The noun חֵצִי derives from the root חצה, "to divide" or "to split," and denotes that which is divided—"a half" or "half-portion." The prefixed conjunction וָ־ adds "and," and the form is masculine singular absolute (Ncmsa), so "and a half-portion" preserves both the root sense of division and the singular grammatical form.
