of the drinking-feast
| Root | שתה (sh-t-h) |
| Core Meanings | to drink, imbibe, partake of drink |
| Semantic Range | banquet, drinking feast, celebratory meal centered on wine, royal feast |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical narrative, the מִשְׁתֶּה often marks moments of royal display, covenantal fellowship, celebration, or decisive turning points, where communal drinking symbolizes joy, alliance, or sometimes excess and vulnerability. |
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic common masculine singular noun in the construct state, determined (ANcmsd/Td); denotes possession or association ("of"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun מִשְׁתֶּה derives from the root שתה ("to drink") and denotes a feast characterized by drinking. Rendering it as "drinking-feast" preserves the connection to the act of drinking rather than using the more generic "banquet." The construct singular form (masculine singular determined) is reflected by "of the drinking-feast." |
