SIBI-P1 H6664-11
rightness
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular noun in the absolute state (HNcmsa) from the root צדק; appears without suffixes or construct relation in the cited forms. |
| Rendering Rationale | "Rightness" preserves the concrete sense of conformity to a standard inherent in the root צדק rather than abstract moralism alone. The form is a masculine singular absolute noun (HNcmsa), so the singular abstract noun "rightness" accurately reflects its grammatical number and state. |
