SIBI-P1 H1323-28
to a daughter
| Root | בנה (b-n-h) |
| Core Meanings | to build, to establish, to construct, to cause to continue |
| Semantic Range | daughter (literal child), female descendant, member of a people ("daughter of Zion"), town or village dependent on a larger city, branch or offshoot, metaphorical extension (e.g., "apple of the eye"). |
| Conceptual Significance | "Daughter" expresses lineage, covenant continuity, and communal identity in Israel’s worldview. It can personify cities or peoples (e.g., "daughter of Zion"), emphasizing relational belonging and the idea of being "built" into a household or covenant community. |
| Morphological Notes | Preposition לְ ("to/for") prefixed to a feminine singular noun (בַּת). Occurs in both absolute (Ncfsa) and construct (Ncfsc) forms; no pronominal suffix. Feminine singular throughout. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun בַּת (daughter) derives from the root בנה, "to build," reflecting the idea of one who is built up from a household line. The form לְבַת includes the preposition לְ ("to/for") attached to a feminine singular noun, here rendered "to a daughter," preserving its feminine singular form; in construct contexts it may mean "to the daughter of." |
