SIBI-P1 H3754-04
a cultivated vineyard-field
| Root | כרם (k-r-m) |
| Core Meanings | vineyard, cultivated vine-field, fertile planting ground |
| Semantic Range | vineyard, vine plantation, estate of grapevines, by extension the produce or yield of a vineyard |
| Conceptual Significance | The vineyard is a central image in the Hebrew Bible, symbolizing blessing, inheritance, prosperity, and often Israel herself as YHWH’s carefully tended planting; it can also represent accountability when the vineyard fails to yield good fruit. |
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine noun, singular absolute (no article or suffix). Functions as a concrete noun referring to a specific cultivated area. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun כֶּרֶם is a common masculine singular absolute form, so it is rendered as a singular, indefinite entity (“a …”). The rendering “cultivated vineyard-field” reflects the root idea of a deliberately planted and tended vine-growing area, preserving the agricultural and productive nuance inherent in the term. |
