SIBI-P1 H2399-08
a misstep
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine singular noun in the absolute state; from the verbal root חטא (Qal: to miss, to sin). No pronominal suffix or construct relation in this form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root חטא, meaning "to miss" or "to err," preserving the imagery of missing a mark or going astray. The form is masculine singular absolute (HNcmsa), so the rendering reflects a single, concrete instance—"a misstep"—rather than an abstract or plural concept. |
