evil-of
| Root | רעע (r-ʿ-ʿ) |
| Core Meanings | badness, harm, injury, adversity, moral evil, calamity |
| Semantic Range | moral evil, wickedness, misfortune, calamity, injury, distress, adversity, harmful circumstance |
| Conceptual Significance | This term expresses both moral corruption and experiential calamity in the Hebrew Bible, reflecting the worldview in which ethical wrongdoing and disastrous events are intertwined under the broad category of what is ‘bad’ or harmful. Its construct usage often specifies the source, object, or sphere of such evil, sharpening theological reflection on responsibility and consequence. |
| Morphological Notes | Common feminine singular noun in the construct state (HNcfsc). The absolute form is רָעָה; in construct it becomes רָעַת, indicating possession or association with a following noun. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form רָעַת is the feminine singular construct of רַע/רָעָה, derived from the root רעע (“to be bad, harmful”). Rendering it as “evil-of” preserves both the core sense of harmfulness or badness and the construct state, which requires the noun to be completed by a following genitive (“evil of …”). |
