seven (the fullness-number)
| Root | שבע (sh-b-ʿ) |
| Core Meanings | seven, fullness, completion, oath, satisfaction |
| Semantic Range | the number seven; seven units of time or objects; seven times; a week; by extension completeness or a full measure; sometimes an indefinite large number |
| Conceptual Significance | Seven in the Hebrew Bible signifies completeness, fullness, and covenantal oath (related to the verb שׁבע, "to swear"). It structures sacred time (seven days of creation, Sabbath, festivals) and symbolizes divine completeness and fulfillment. |
| Morphological Notes | Cardinal number, masculine singular absolute (HAcmsa). Used to modify masculine nouns or stand substantivally; derived from the root שׁבע. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form שִׁבְעָה is a masculine singular cardinal adjective meaning "seven." The rendering preserves the numerical sense while highlighting its root connection to fullness and completeness inherent in שׁבע. As a masculine singular absolute form, it agrees with a masculine noun and is represented simply as "seven" in English, which does not mark grammatical gender for numbers. |
