your heart-core
| Root | לבב (l-b-b) |
| Core Meanings | heart, inner self, mind, will, inner person, center |
| Semantic Range | Inner self, seat of emotions, will, intellect, conscience, courage, intention, moral character, or the physical heart; also metaphorically the center of something. |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical anthropology, the "heart" is the control center of the person—where covenant loyalty, wisdom, rebellion, and devotion originate. It encompasses thought, desire, and moral choice, making it central to Israel’s understanding of obedience and relationship with יהוה. |
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine singular noun in construct (לֵב > לִבְּ) with 2ms pronominal suffix ךָ; literally "heart of you" (masculine singular). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun לֵב (from the root לבב) denotes the inner heart as the seat of thought, will, and emotion. The form is masculine singular in construct with a second masculine singular pronominal suffix, yielding "your heart" addressed to one male individual. "Heart-core" preserves the concrete imagery of the inner center while reflecting the singular possessed form. |
