SIBI-P1 H1755-17
for their generations
| Root | דור (d-w-r) |
| Core Meanings | cycle, revolution, turn, generation, dwelling |
| Semantic Range | generation, age, lifetime, period, posterity, successive eras, enduring continuity |
| Conceptual Significance | דּוֹר emphasizes the cyclical unfolding of time through successive generations. In covenantal contexts, "for their generations" underscores enduring obligations, statutes, or promises extending through the ongoing cycles of a people’s lineage. |
| Morphological Notes | Preposition לְ + masculine plural construct noun (Ncmpc) from דּוֹר + 3mp pronominal suffix ("their"). The construct form links the generations to the possessors indicated by the suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun דּוֹר (generation, cycle) appears here in the masculine plural construct form דֹרֹת with a 3rd person masculine plural suffix ("their"), preceded by the preposition לְ ("for/to"). "For their generations" preserves the plural form and the possessive suffix, while reflecting the root idea of successive cycles of time. |
