his heart
| Root | לבב (l-b-b) |
| Core Meanings | heart, inner self, mind, will, inner person, center |
| Semantic Range | inner self, mind, understanding, will, intention, emotion, courage, conscience, the center of a person or thing |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical anthropology, the לֵב is the core of human identity—the seat of thought, moral decision, intention, and desire. It represents the integrated inner life before יהוה, making "his heart" the locus of covenant loyalty, rebellion, wisdom, or transformation. |
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine singular noun (construct form) from לֵב/לֵבָב with 3ms pronominal suffix; literally "heart of him." |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is a masculine singular noun in construct (לִבּ) with a third masculine singular pronominal suffix (וֹ), yielding "his heart." The rendering preserves the concrete Hebrew concept of the "heart" as the inner person—seat of thought, will, and emotion—while accurately reflecting the singular form and 3ms possession. |
