to women
| Root | אישׁ (ʾ-y-š) |
| Core Meanings | man, human being, individual person; by gender distinction, woman as female counterpart |
| Semantic Range | women (adult females), wives, female members of a household or community; in some contexts contrasted with men, children, or leaders. |
| Conceptual Significance | Women (נָשִׁים) are central to covenantal family structure, inheritance, and communal identity in Israel. The term can denote biological females broadly or specifically wives within marriage, underscoring the social and theological importance of household continuity and relational roles in biblical thought. |
| Morphological Notes | Preposition לְ ("to/for") + noun common feminine plural absolute of אִשָּׁה; irregular plural form נָשִׁים; no pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun נָשִׁים is the irregular feminine plural of אִשָּׁה (woman), and the prefixed לְ indicates direction or relation, "to" or "for." Rendering it as "to women" preserves the feminine plural form and clearly reflects the prefixed preposition. |
