SIBI-P1 H4327-01
according to her kind
| Root | מין (m-y-n) |
| Core Meanings | portioning, classification, kind, species, category |
| Semantic Range | kind, species, type, class, category, division according to natural or created distinctions |
| Conceptual Significance | Central in Genesis 1 and related creation texts, this term underscores the ordered differentiation within creation—living beings reproducing within divinely established boundaries. It reflects a worldview of purposeful classification and structured diversity within YHWH’s creative design. |
| Morphological Notes | Preposition לְ + masculine singular noun in construct (מִין) + 3fs pronominal suffix (־הּ), literally "to/according to her kind." |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun מִין ("kind, category") derives from a root meaning "to portion out" or classify. The form מִינָהּ is masculine singular with a 3rd feminine singular pronominal suffix ("her kind"), and the prefixed לְ conveys relation or conformity ("according to"), yielding "according to her kind." This preserves both the root sense of classification and the feminine singular suffix required by the morphology. |
