Rootטוב (ṭ-w-b)
Core Meaningsgoodness, pleasantness, beauty, benefit, welfare, bounty
Semantic Rangegoodness, bounty, best part, prosperity, welfare, beauty, joyful benefit
Conceptual Significanceטוּב often denotes the tangible and experiential goodness that flows from YHWH—material blessing, covenantal bounty, and moral goodness. It expresses the idea that what is truly "good" originates in and proceeds from divine beneficence.
Morphological NotesPreposition מִן (min, "from") prefixed to masculine singular construct noun טוּב; the nun assimilates to the following consonant, producing dagesh in ט. Construct state requires a following genitive noun.
Rendering RationaleThe noun טוּב (ṭûb) means "goodness" or "bounty" and is masculine singular in the construct state (Ncmsc), indicating it governs a following noun (“the goodness of …”). The prefixed מִן (min, "from")—assimilated here to מִטּוּב—adds the sense "from," preserving both the root idea of goodness and the grammatical construct relationship.
