SIBI-P1 H1419-14

the great one

Rootגדל (g-d-l)
Core Meaningsto grow, become great, be large, be exalted, magnify
Semantic Rangegreat, large, mighty, important, older, exalted, intense, loud, severe
Conceptual Significanceגדל expresses not only physical size but status, power, and exaltation. It frequently describes YHWH as "the Great" (e.g., Deut 10:17), underscoring divine supremacy, and marks significant events such as "the great day" of judgment or deliverance, highlighting magnitude and awe.
Morphological NotesAdjective, masculine singular absolute (Aamsa) with prefixed definite article (הַ). Used attributively or substantively; here functioning as a definite masculine singular descriptor.
Rendering RationaleThe adjective גָּדוֹל derives from the root גדל, conveying the idea of growth into greatness or largeness. The form is masculine singular absolute with the definite article ("the"), so "the great one" preserves both the root sense of greatness and the grammatical masculine singular form.
