SIBI-P1 H2298-01

one (single)

Rootחד (ḥ-d)
Core Meaningsoneness, unity, singularity, firstness
Semantic Rangeone, single, first, a certain one, once, together (in unified sense)
Conceptual SignificanceThe term expresses the concept of singularity or unity, foundational in biblical thought for emphasizing uniqueness, primacy, or unified action. In theological contexts, the idea of "one" underscores themes of divine uniqueness, covenantal unity, and indivisible identity.
Morphological NotesAramaic adjective/numeral; masculine singular absolute (A/HA-cmsa). Functions as a cardinal number, an adjectival "single," or adverbially as "once/at once."
Rendering RationaleThe Aramaic adjective חַד is masculine singular absolute, denoting a single entity. "One (single)" preserves the core sense of singularity inherent in the root חד while accurately reflecting its masculine singular form in context (though English numerals do not mark grammatical gender).
