SIBI-P1 H7341-03
breadth
| Root | רחב (r-ḥ-b) |
| Core Meanings | to be wide, broad, spacious; to enlarge; openness, expanse |
| Semantic Range | Physical width or measurement; spatial expanse; figurative breadth such as abundance, freedom, or vastness. |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical literature, breadth can signify not only physical dimensions (of land, buildings, objects) but also metaphorical spaciousness—often associated with divine blessing, freedom from constraint, or the vast scope of YHWH’s provision and dominion. |
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine singular noun; appears in both absolute (HNcmsa) and construct (HNcmsc) states. No pronominal suffix in the cited forms. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun רֹחַב derives from the root רחב, conveying the idea of width or spaciousness. As a masculine singular noun (absolute or construct), it is best rendered in English as the singular "breadth," preserving both the root sense of broadness and the singular form indicated by the morphology. |
