SIBI-P1 H3605-09

whole-of

Rootכל (k-l)
Core Meaningswholeness, completeness, totality, entirety
Semantic RangeWhole, all, every, any, altogether, whatsoever, totality (singular form often with plural sense); contextually: all manner/kind, every one/place/thing, the whole.
Conceptual SignificanceEmphasizes God's comprehensive sovereignty over **all creation** (e.g., Gen 1:31 כָּל־הַדָּבָר 'whole-of-the-thing'), Israel's total obedience (Deut 6:5 בְּכָל־לְבָבְךָ 'with-whole-of-your-heart'), and exhaustive covenants/promises; underscores nothing excluded from divine rule or human responsibility in biblical theology.
Morphological NotesNoun, masculine singular construct (HNcmsc); appears as כָּל with consistent morphology across 2606 occurrences; construct form requires a following nomen rectum.
Rendering Rationale'Whole-of' preserves the root's core sense of completeness derived from כָּלַל 'to complete/perfect,' emphasizing totality while the construct state (marked by -sc) indicates it governs a following noun as a fixed phrase like 'whole of creation'; this reflects the masculine singular construct noun (HNcmsc) morphology without adding gender/number/person suffixes. It avoids generic 'all' to highlight semantic depth of rounded-out perfection. English hyphenation mirrors Hebrew's inseparable nature.
