SIBI-P1 `H7620-02`

sevened periods

Root	שבע (sh-b-ʿ)
Core Meanings	seven, fullness, completeness, oath-binding
Semantic Range	a week of days; a heptad; a seven-year period ("week" of years); a defined cycle marked by seven
Conceptual Significance	The term reflects the biblical pattern of structuring time in cycles of seven, symbolizing completeness and covenantal order. Its derivation from the root associated with oath-taking ("to seven oneself") links temporal cycles with themes of covenant fullness and solemn commitment.
Morphological Notes	Common masculine plural absolute noun; from שָׁבוּעַ, a passive participial form of שבע used substantively to denote a unit characterized by seven (a heptad).
Rendering Rationale	The noun שָׁבֻעִים is the masculine plural absolute form of a term derived from the root שבע, "to seven" or "to swear." As a passive participle functioning substantively, it literally denotes things "sevened"—that is, units marked off by seven—so "sevened periods" preserves both the root idea and the masculine plural morphology (HNcmpa).
