SIBI-P1 H6258-01

you (masculine singular)

Rootאתה (ʾ-t-h)
Core Meaningssecond person reference, direct address, personal designation
Semantic Rangeyou (masculine singular), yourself (masculine singular), direct address to one male individual, emphatic personal reference
Conceptual SignificanceThis pronoun marks direct covenantal, prophetic, or personal address in the biblical text. Its explicit masculine singular form can distinguish an individual male (such as a king, prophet, or representative figure) from a group, shaping interpretation in legal, relational, and theological contexts.
Morphological NotesIndependent personal pronoun; second person masculine singular (HPp2ms). Not derived from a verbal stem; functions syntactically as subject, predicate complement, or in apposition for emphasis.
Rendering RationaleThis form is the independent second person masculine singular pronoun (HPp2ms). The rendering "you (masculine singular)" preserves the grammatical gender and number explicitly, reflecting that the speaker addresses one male individual directly.
