SIBI-P1 `H6186-05`

to set in order

Root	ערך (ʿ-r-k)
Core Meanings	to arrange, set in order, array, organize, assess, value
Semantic Range	to arrange in sequence, to draw up (a battle line), to prepare or lay out, to organize, to compare, to assess or value, to set forth formally.
Conceptual Significance	This root reflects the biblical emphasis on intentional order—whether in warfare, worship (arranging the altar or offerings), or social valuation. It conveys the idea that matters of covenant life and divine service require deliberate structuring rather than disorder.
Morphological Notes	Qal infinitive (forms עָרֹךְ / עֲרֹךְ), functioning as either infinitive absolute or construct depending on context; simple active stem with no specified subject.
Rendering Rationale	The Qal stem expresses the simple active sense of the root ערך, meaning to arrange or set in order. As an infinitive (absolute/construct), it functions verbally without person, gender, or number, so the English infinitive "to set in order" preserves both the root meaning and the grammatical form.
