strength
| Root | און (ʾ-w-n) |
| Core Meanings | strength, vigor, potency, capacity, wealth, substance |
| Semantic Range | physical strength, generative power, virility, material wealth, substance, productive capacity, personal might |
| Conceptual Significance | אוֹן expresses the idea of active potency—whether physical, economic, or generative. It can denote a man’s procreative strength, a tribe’s substance, or a person’s material resources, highlighting the biblical association between strength, fruitfulness, and prosperity as signs of vitality and blessing. |
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular noun (absolute and construct forms attested). Some occurrences include a 1cs pronominal suffix ("my strength"). One form appears as a proper noun. Vocalization may vary (אוֹן / אֳנִי / עֹנִי) but derives from the same consonantal root. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root און (ʾ-w-n), conveying strength, vigor, and capacity. The forms represented are masculine singular (absolute and construct), sometimes with a 1st person common singular suffix, yielding "my strength." Rendering it as "strength" preserves the core idea of active potency or resource while matching the masculine singular morphology. |
