SIBI-P1 H2399-16
our missings
| Root | חטא (ḥ-ṭ-ʾ) |
| Core Meanings | to miss, to miss the mark, to err, to offend, to sin |
| Semantic Range | sin, offense, guilt, failure, wrongdoing, the state or consequence of having erred |
| Conceptual Significance | This term expresses the biblical concept of sin as deviation from the divine standard—missing the mark set by YHWH. It conveys both personal culpability and communal responsibility when used with collective suffixes such as "our." |
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine plural noun in construct form (חֲטָאֵי) with 1st person common plural pronominal suffix (נוּ), literally "missings of us." |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun חֵטְא derives from the root חטא, "to miss" or "to miss the mark," which developed into the moral sense of sin or offense. Rendering the masculine plural construct with 1st person common plural suffix as "our missings" preserves both the root imagery of deviation from a standard and the explicit plural "our" form indicated by the morphology (Ncmpc + Sp1cp). |
