SIBI-P1 H5930-15
ascent-offering
| Morphological Notes | Common feminine singular noun (absolute). Though lexically a noun, it is historically related to the feminine active participle of עלה, indicating "that which goes up." |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun עֹלָה is a feminine singular form derived from the root עלה (“to go up, ascend”). "Ascent-offering" preserves the core idea of something that goes up—specifically in smoke upon the altar—while reflecting the singular feminine noun in the absolute state. |
