Rootמן (m-n)
Core Meaningsseparation, source, origin, partitive sense, departure
Semantic Rangefrom, out of, away from, because of, since, part of, among, by reason of, more than (comparative)
Conceptual Significanceמִן is foundational for expressing source, origin, and separation in biblical thought—whether physical departure, causal agency, or covenantal distinction. In theological contexts it often marks divine source (blessing, judgment, revelation) or separation from impurity or enemies, shaping Israel’s understanding of origin and identity.
Morphological NotesPreposition מִן with assimilation of the nun (dagesh forte in מ) plus 3ms pronominal suffix -וּ; appears in some contexts orthographically identical to the 1cp form, but here reflects 3ms usage.
Rendering RationaleThe preposition מִן conveys separation or source—movement or derivation out from someone or something. With the 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix (-וּ), the form specifically means "out from him," preserving both the directional force of the root and the masculine singular reference.
