Rootהוא (h-w-ʾ)
Core Meaningsdemonstrative reference, this/that, being, presence
Semantic Rangethus, so, like this, in this manner, here, hither, now, to this point, on this side
Conceptual SignificanceFrequently used in prophetic formulas such as "כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה" ("Like this says YHWH"), it introduces divine speech and underscores that what follows corresponds exactly to the manner or message being conveyed, marking authoritative proclamation.
Morphological NotesAdverbial demonstrative particle; composed of the preposition כ־ ("like/as") plus a demonstrative base related to הוא. Indeclinable and does not vary for gender, number, or person.
Rendering Rationaleכֹּה is formed from the prefixed כ־ ("like/as") attached to the demonstrative הוא ("this/that"), yielding the sense "like this" or "in this manner." As an indeclinable adverb (HD), it carries no gender, number, or person marking, so the rendering reflects its fixed demonstrative-adverbial force.
