SIBI-P1 H7312-02

loftiness (of…)

Rootרום (r-w-m)
Core Meaningsheight, elevation, exaltation, rising, lifting up
Semantic Rangephysical height, elevated place, exalted status, pride, majesty, raised offering, upward movement
Conceptual SignificanceThe root רום expresses both literal elevation and metaphorical exaltation. It is frequently used of YHWH’s exalted status above all creation, as well as of human pride or haughtiness, contrasting divine majesty with human self-exaltation.
Morphological NotesPrimarily a masculine singular noun in the construct state (HNcmsc), indicating possession or relationship ("loftiness of …"). One occurrence reflects the verbal root (Qal), from which the noun derives.
Rendering RationaleThe noun form רוּם (HNcmsc) is a masculine singular construct meaning "loftiness of," preserving the core sense of elevation from the root רום (to be high, to raise up). Rendering it as "loftiness (of…)" maintains both the abstract sense of height and the construct relationship indicated by the morphology.
