foundation-bases

Rootאדן (ʾ-d-n)
Core Meaningsstrength, firmness, support, base, foundation
Semantic Rangefoundation, base, pedestal, socket (especially for tabernacle boards or pillars), structural support element
Conceptual SignificanceIn the tabernacle narratives, the אֲדָנִים are the silver foundation-bases that anchor the framework, symbolizing stability and groundedness. They embody the concept of firm support underlying sacred space, reinforcing themes of strength and ordered structure in Israel’s worship life.
Morphological NotesCommon masculine plural noun in the absolute state; from the singular אֶדֶן (ʾeden). No pronominal suffix; functions as a regular plural substantive.
Rendering RationaleThe noun derives from the root א-ד-נ, associated with firmness and strength, referring to that which provides solid support. As a masculine plural absolute noun (HNcmpa), אֲדָנִים is rendered in clear plural form as "foundation-bases," preserving both its structural sense and its grammatical number.
