SIBI-P1 H1821-01
she who resembles
| Root | דמה (d-m-h) |
| Core Meanings | likeness, resemblance, comparison, being like |
| Semantic Range | to resemble, to be like, to compare, to liken; by extension to imagine or conceive through comparison |
| Conceptual Significance | The root דמה underlies biblical expressions of likeness and comparison, central to themes of image, analogy, and representation. It frames how realities—human, divine, or symbolic—are understood through resemblance, shaping theological reflection on likeness and identity. |
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic verb, Qal stem, participle, feminine singular absolute. From the root דמה (d-m-h), "to resemble, be like." The participle expresses a state or characteristic quality. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Aramaic form is a Qal participle feminine singular absolute, indicating an ongoing or characteristic state. Rendering it as "she who resembles" preserves the participial sense (one characterized by resemblance) and explicitly reflects the feminine singular morphology. |
