SIBI-P1 H7070-05
the reed-stalks
| Root | קנה (q-n-h) |
| Core Meanings | reed, stalk, measuring rod, shaft, beam |
| Semantic Range | reeds growing by water, cane-stalks, measuring rods, shafts or poles, branches resembling reeds, beams or balance arms by extension |
| Conceptual Significance | קָנֶה evokes imagery of upright growth and measure. It can symbolize fragility (a bruised reed), but also precision and order when used as a measuring rod in temple visions, linking natural imagery with divine standards and structure. |
| Morphological Notes | Noun common masculine plural absolute with prefixed definite article (הַ + קָּנִים). No pronominal suffix. From lemma קָנֶה (reed, rod). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun קָנֶה denotes a reed or stalk—something upright and rod-like. The form הַקָּנִים is masculine plural with the definite article, so "the reed-stalks" preserves both the concrete root imagery (upright, cane-like stems) and the grammatical features of definite masculine plural. |
