SIBI-P1 H4784-08
and you all rebelled
| Root | מרה (m-r-h) |
| Core Meanings | bitterness, resistance, rebellion, provocation |
| Semantic Range | to be bitter, to act in defiance, to rebel against authority, to resist, to provoke through disobedience |
| Conceptual Significance | מָרָה often describes covenantal rebellion against יהוה, portraying disobedience as embittered resistance rather than mere error. It frames sin as relational defiance that provokes divine response within Israel’s covenant history. |
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וּ + Qal perfect 2nd person masculine plural of מָרָה. The form indicates a completed action by a masculine plural subject within narrative sequence. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb is from מָרָה in the Qal stem, expressing active rebellion or resistance. The form is 2nd person masculine plural with a prefixed conjunction, so "and you all rebelled" preserves the plural address and completed action while reflecting the root idea of embittered resistance. |
