and three
| Root | תלת (t-l-t) |
| Core Meanings | three, triad, thirdness, threeness |
| Semantic Range | three (cardinal number); in some contexts may imply a triad, a third item, or a group of three. |
| Conceptual Significance | The number three in biblical literature often conveys completeness, confirmation, or emphasis (e.g., three witnesses, three days). In Aramaic sections of Scripture, it functions both as a simple numeral and as part of symbolic numeric patterns common to ancient Near Eastern thought. |
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic cardinal number, common gender singular absolute (Acbsa), with prefixed conjunction וּ ("and"). Functions numerically though morphologically singular in form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The term תְלָת is the Aramaic cardinal number "three" in the absolute state. The prefixed conjunction וּ adds "and," so the faithful rendering "and three" preserves both the numeric root sense (t-l-t, expressing threeness) and the conjunctive form reflected in the morphology. |
