the written-record
| Root | כתב (k-t-b) |
| Core Meanings | write, inscribe, record, document |
| Semantic Range | writing, written document, record, decree, official document, book, inscription |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical usage, a "written-record" often signifies authoritative communication—royal decrees, legal records, or divinely revealed messages—underscoring the enduring and binding nature of what has been inscribed. |
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic noun; common masculine singular in the determined state (definite), from כְּתָב (kᵉthâb), corresponding to Hebrew כָּתָב. The determined state functions with a definite sense ("the"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root כתב (k-t-b), meaning "to write" or "to inscribe." Rendering it as "the written-record" preserves the concrete sense of something produced by writing while reflecting the masculine singular determined state ("the") indicated in the morphology. |
