SIBI-P1 H639-06

your nose

Rootאנף (ʾ-n-p̄)
Core Meaningsnose, nostril, face, anger, wrath, flaring breath
Semantic Rangenose, nostril, face, countenance, anger, wrath, patience (in idioms such as "long of nose" = slow to anger)
Conceptual SignificanceThis term grounds the concept of anger in a physical image—the flaring nose—highlighting the embodied, anthropomorphic language often used of both humans and YHWH. It also underlies key theological expressions such as divine forbearance ("long of nose") and righteous wrath.
Morphological NotesCommon masculine singular noun in construct form (HNcmsc) with 2ms pronominal suffix ("your," masculine singular).
Rendering RationaleThe noun אַף (ʾaph) literally means "nose" and, by extension, "anger" (from the flaring of the nostrils in wrath). The form is masculine singular construct with a 2nd masculine singular pronominal suffix, hence "your nose," preserving both the concrete root image and the grammatical detail.
