and in the year-cycle of
| Root | שנה (sh-n-h) |
| Core Meanings | repetition, change, cycle, return, yearly revolution |
| Semantic Range | year, annual cycle, age, duration of reign, yearly reckoning, season marked by cyclical return |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical thought, the "year" embodies the cyclical ordering of time established by YHWH, structuring agricultural life, sabbatical rhythms, festivals, and royal chronologies. Its root sense of repetition underscores the patterned faithfulness of time’s return within covenant history. |
| Morphological Notes | ו (conjunction) + ב (preposition "in") + שְׁנַת (feminine singular construct of שָׁנָה, "year"). The construct form links the year to a following noun (e.g., a king’s reign or an event). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun שָׁנָה derives from a root conveying repetition or cyclical change, reflecting the annual turning of time. The form is feminine singular construct with prefixed conjunction ו and preposition ב, so "and in the year-cycle of" preserves the conjunction, the locative sense of "in," the singular feminine noun, and the construct relationship requiring what follows. |
