SIBI-P1 H3027-56

in his hand

Rootיד (y-d)
Core Meaningshand, power, strength, agency, possession, control
Semantic Rangeliteral hand; power; authority; control; possession; agency; responsibility; means or instrumentality; side or direction.
Conceptual Significance"Hand" in biblical thought represents power, authority, and active agency. To be "in his hand" often signifies being under someone’s control or within their power, whether human or divine, underscoring themes of sovereignty and responsibility.
Morphological NotesPreposition בְ or conjunction וְ prefixed to a feminine singular noun יָד in construct form with 3ms pronominal suffix ("his").
Rendering RationaleThe noun יָד (feminine singular) with the 3ms pronominal suffix וֹ yields "his hand," and with the prefixed preposition בְ it means "in his hand." This preserves both the literal sense of "hand" and its extended meaning of power or control, while accurately reflecting the masculine singular possessor.
