voice-of
| Root | קול (q-w-l) |
| Core Meanings | voice, sound, call, audible expression, proclamation |
| Semantic Range | voice, sound, noise, cry, proclamation, thunder, report, fame, audible expression of speech or natural phenomena |
| Conceptual Significance | קוֹל often signifies more than mere sound; it can denote divine speech (the voice of YHWH), prophetic proclamation, or powerful natural manifestations such as thunder. It bridges physical sound and authoritative declaration, underscoring the biblical theme of revelation through audible expression. |
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine singular noun in the construct state; from the root ק-ו-ל, likely denoting calling aloud or producing sound. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun קוֹל is a masculine singular in the construct state (HNcmsc), indicating possession or linkage, thus "voice-of" preserves its grammatical form. Rendering it as "voice" maintains the core sense of an audible call or sound rooted in the idea of calling aloud, while the "-of" reflects the construct relationship inherent in the morphology. |
