SIBI-P1 H5921-08

upon her

Rootעל (ʿ-l)
Core Meaningsabove, over, upon, against, on
Semantic RangeAbove, over, upon, against (with downward aspect), according to, after, among, at, by, concerning, from, on, over, than, through, to, touching, with; varies by context (spatial, temporal, causal).
Conceptual SignificanceAs a ubiquitous preposition (170 occurrences), על signifies relational positioning before God or man, often denoting authority ('over'), burden ('upon'), or proximity ('on'); theologically, it evokes divine oversight (e.g., God's hand 'upon' Israel) and human responsibility under judgment or blessing.
Morphological NotesHR/Sp3fs: Hebrew preposition (HR) with 3rd person feminine singular pronominal suffix (Sp3fs), surfacing as עָלֶֽי/הָ etc., a contracted form of עָלֶיהָ.
Rendering RationaleThe faithful rendering 'upon her' directly reflects the core preposition meaning of 'above/over/upon' from the root על (H5921) while preserving the 3rd person feminine singular pronominal suffix (הָ) indicated in the HR/Sp3fs morphology. It maintains the spatial or relational sense with a downward aspect as per the lexeme gloss, using the feminine 'her' to match the grammar. This avoids generic translations like 'on it' to highlight the gender-specific reference.
