SIBI-P1 H314-04
the hindermost one
| Root | אחר (ʾ-ḥ-r) |
| Core Meanings | behindness, delay, lateness, following, hindrance |
| Semantic Range | last in sequence, latter, final, hindermost, western (as behind when facing east), ultimate |
| Conceptual Significance | Often used to express finality in time, order, or rank, and in theological contexts to affirm YHWH as "the First and the Hindermost," emphasizing His sovereignty over beginnings and endings and His presence beyond all sequence. |
| Morphological Notes | Adjective, masculine singular absolute with prefixed definite article (הַ). Functions substantivally here, meaning "the last" or "the one behind." |
| Rendering Rationale | The adjective אַחֲרוֹן derives from the root אחר, conveying what is behind, delayed, or following. With the definite article and masculine singular absolute form (Ams), it functions substantivally as "the hindermost one," preserving both the root sense of what comes behind and the singular masculine morphology. |
