SIBI-P1 H8160-02
the hour-moment
| Root | שעה (sh-ʿ-h) |
| Core Meanings | to look, gaze, turn attention, regard; a moment marked by attention |
| Semantic Range | hour, moment, fixed time, appointed occasion, a marked point in time |
| Conceptual Significance | In Biblical Aramaic contexts (e.g., Daniel), this term often marks decisive or divinely appointed moments. It conveys not merely chronological time but a specific, significant point that has come into focus within the unfolding of events. |
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic common feminine singular noun in the emphatic (determined) state; absolute form שַׁעֲתָא. Occurs twice in Biblical Aramaic. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root שעה, "to look" or "turn attention," suggesting a point in time marked out or noticed. Rendering it "the hour-moment" preserves the idea of a specific, attended point in time while reflecting the feminine singular emphatic (determined) form indicated by the morphology ("the" + singular noun). |
