SIBI-P1 H3546-01
the one being able
| Root | כהל (k-h-l (Aram.; cf. k-w-l)) |
| Core Meanings | ability, capacity, power, prevailing strength |
| Semantic Range | to be able, to have capacity, to have power to accomplish, to prevail, to be capable or competent |
| Conceptual Significance | This root expresses personal capacity or power to act. In biblical theology, such ability may highlight human limitation in contrast to divine omnipotence, or underscore granted authority and empowerment within a given context. |
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic verb, Peal stem, active participle, masculine singular absolute (AVqrmsa). Functions adjectivally or substantivally to describe a male subject as possessing ability. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is an Aramaic Peal (Qal-equivalent) masculine singular participle in the absolute state, denoting a single male subject characterized by ability. "The one being able" preserves the participial force (ongoing or characteristic capacity) and the singular masculine sense inherent in the morphology. |
