Core Meaningsabundance, multiplicity, greatness, increase, magnitude
Semantic Rangemany, numerous, abundant, great (in number or degree), mighty, prominent, populous
Conceptual Significanceרַבִּים often highlights the themes of abundance and increase—whether of people, blessings, sins, or nations. It can signify divine blessing in multiplication, the vastness of a people group, or the weight of collective human action within covenantal history.
Morphological NotesAdjective, masculine plural absolute (HAampa), from רַב (rab), derived from the root רבב "to be many, to be great." Functions attributively ("many X") or substantively ("the many, numerous ones").
