SIBI-P1 H6963-01

by a voice

Rootקול (q-w-l)
Core Meaningsvoice, sound, call, audible expression, proclamation
Semantic Rangevoice, sound, noise, cry, proclamation, thunder, report, audible manifestation
Conceptual Significanceקוֹל often signifies not merely sound but an expressive, revelatory utterance—frequently the "voice" of יהוה in thunder, command, or prophetic speech. It conveys divine self-disclosure, authority, and the power of spoken proclamation in Israel’s theology.
Morphological NotesPrefixed inseparable preposition ב ("in/by/with") + noun קוֹל, masculine singular (absolute/construct forms identical in this spelling). No pronominal suffix. Strong’s H6963.
Rendering RationaleThe noun קוֹל is a masculine singular meaning "voice" or "sound," derived from a root associated with calling aloud. The prefixed ב preposition is faithfully represented as "by," preserving the instrumental or locative sense. The singular form is maintained in English as "a voice."
