SIBI-P1 H8033-03

there (in that place)

Rootשם (sh-m)
Core Meaningsplace, location, position, there
Semantic Rangethere, in that place, to that place, from that place, at that time (then), in that matter
Conceptual Significanceשָׁם marks spatial or situational orientation within the narrative, often highlighting divinely appointed locations of revelation, covenant, judgment, or deliverance. It anchors events to specific places that carry theological memory and covenant significance.
Morphological NotesDemonstrative adverb of place (particle), functioning locatively and sometimes temporally (“then”). It is invariable and does not inflect for gender, number, or person.
Rendering RationaleThe form is a demonstrative adverb indicating location. Rendering it as "there (in that place)" preserves its core spatial sense while making explicit the locative force inherent in the particle. As an adverb, it carries no gender, number, or person distinctions, which are appropriately absent in the English rendering.
