from the outside-place

Rootחוץ (ḥ-w-ṣ)
Core Meaningsseparation, exclusion, outside space, that which is cut off
Semantic Rangeoutside, outdoors, beyond a boundary, external area, open country, streets, abroad, outside a house or city, beyond the community
Conceptual Significanceחוּץ marks the boundary between what is inside (protected, covenantal, ordered space) and what is outside (exposed, foreign, or excluded). It often carries spatial and symbolic weight, distinguishing sacred from common space, community from foreign territory, and safety from vulnerability.
Morphological NotesPreposition מִ ("from") prefixed to a masculine singular common noun in the absolute state (חוּץ). Though the lexeme is feminine in the plural, here it appears as masculine singular absolute with prefixed preposition.
Rendering RationaleThe noun חוּץ derives from a root meaning "to sever" or "to separate," denoting that which lies outside or cut off from an enclosed space. The prefixed מִ ("from") combined with the masculine singular absolute noun yields "from the outside-place," preserving both the separative root sense and the singular form indicated by the morphology (HR/Ncmsa).
