and a signet-ring
| Root | טבע (ṭ-b-ʿ) |
| Core Meanings | to sink, to plunge, to embed, to imprint, to stamp |
| Semantic Range | signet-ring, seal-ring, ornamental ring, sealing device used to imprint authority |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical culture, the signet-ring symbolized authority, identity, and ownership. Because it impressed a personal seal, it represented delegated power and covenantal authentication, often standing for the authority of a king or official. |
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ ("and") + noun, common feminine singular absolute (Ncfsa). No definite article; singular in number. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun טַבַּעַת derives from the root טָבַע, "to sink" or "to imprint," referring to something pressed or sunk into wax or clay to make an impression. As a feminine singular absolute noun (with prefixed conjunction וְ), the form is rendered "and a signet-ring," preserving both its singular feminine form and its root sense of an object used for imprinting. |
