SIBI-P1 H3423-25
you have dispossessed
| Root | ירש (y-r-sh) |
| Core Meanings | to dispossess, to take possession, to inherit, to drive out, to occupy by replacing |
| Semantic Range | to dispossess inhabitants, to take possession of land, to inherit property, to supplant, to impoverish, to expel, to bring to ruin |
| Conceptual Significance | ירש is central to the biblical theology of land and inheritance, especially regarding Israel’s dispossession of nations and possession of the promised land. It conveys both divine grant and human action, linking covenant promise with historical fulfillment. |
| Morphological Notes | Hebrew verb, Qal stem, perfect (qatal), 2nd person masculine singular. The Qal expresses the simple active sense: to dispossess or take possession. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal perfect 2nd masculine singular form denotes a completed action performed by "you" (masculine singular). "You have dispossessed" preserves the core root idea of driving out previous occupants in order to take possession, which is central to ירש in the Qal stem. |
