SIBI-P1 H898-12
the treacherous dealer
| Root | בגד (b-g-d) |
| Core Meanings | covering, acting covertly, betrayal, treachery, unfaithfulness |
| Semantic Range | to act covertly, to betray, to deal deceitfully, to be unfaithful (in covenant or marriage), to act treacherously against an ally |
| Conceptual Significance | בגד often describes covenantal betrayal—whether between individuals, spouses, or between Israel and יהוה. It conveys not merely wrongdoing but faithless violation of trust, highlighting the seriousness of disloyalty within relational and covenantal frameworks. |
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, active participle, masculine singular absolute, with prefixed definite article (הַ). The participle functions substantivally: "the one who deals treacherously." |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is a Qal active participle masculine singular with the definite article, indicating "the one who is dealing treacherously." Rendering it as "the treacherous dealer" preserves the active, ongoing sense of the participle and reflects the masculine singular form while retaining the root idea of covert, faithless dealing. |
