the expelled-issue of
| Root | שגר (sh-g-r) |
| Core Meanings | to eject, to send out, to discharge, to bring forth |
| Semantic Range | offspring, issue of the womb, young of livestock, increase produced from animals |
| Conceptual Significance | This term underscores the tangible, embodied nature of fruitfulness in Israel’s agrarian context, highlighting livestock increase as a direct blessing from YHWH and a sign of covenantal abundance. |
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular noun in the construct state (HNcmsc), indicating it is grammatically bound to a following noun ("the … of"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from a root meaning "to eject" or "send out," referring concretely to that which is expelled from the womb. Rendering it as "the expelled-issue of" preserves the vivid root imagery of being sent forth while reflecting the masculine singular construct form ("of" indicating its bound, relational state). |
