SIBI-P1 H1419-04

grown-great

Rootגדל (g-d-l)
Core Meaningsto grow, become great, increase, magnify, make great
Semantic Rangegreat in size, intensity, age, importance, rank, power, number, or degree; can denote social prominence, loudness, severity, or magnitude.
Conceptual Significanceגָּדוֹל expresses not merely size but attained magnitude—whether in status, power, or renown. It often marks divine greatness, covenantal promises of becoming a ‘great’ nation, and the exaltation or humbling of human figures in relation to YHWH’s sovereign magnifying.
Morphological NotesAdjective, masculine singular, absolute state (HAamsa). Functions attributively or predicatively to describe a masculine singular noun.
Rendering RationaleThe adjective גָּדוֹל derives from the root גדל (“to grow, become great”). Rendering it as “grown-great” preserves the verbal sense of having become large or significant, while reflecting its masculine singular absolute form (HAamsa).
