Rootאדן (ʾ-d-n)
Core Meaningslordship, mastery, authority, ownership, sovereignty
Semantic Rangelord, master, owner, ruler, sovereign; as a divine title, the supreme Lord and covenant ruler of Israel
Conceptual SignificanceUsed as a reverential substitute for the divine name יהוה, this title emphasizes God’s absolute authority and covenant lordship. The plural form intensifies majesty, while the possessive "my" reflects personal devotion and covenant relationship.
Morphological NotesMasculine plural noun (אֲדֹנִים) in construct form with 1cs pronominal suffix; morphologically "my Lords." Though grammatically plural, it commonly functions as a singular proper title for Israel’s God (plural of majesty).
