SIBI-P1 H802-40

your women (your wives)

Rootאשה (ʾ-š-h)
Core Meaningswoman, female, wife, female counterpart to man
Semantic Rangewoman, wife, female person, each/any woman, women collectively, wives within a household or covenantal context.
Conceptual Significanceאִשָּׁה signifies the foundational female member of family and covenant life in Israel. As "wives," these women represent household continuity, covenant participation, and the social structure through which lineage, inheritance, and communal identity are preserved.
Morphological NotesCommon feminine plural construct (נְשֵׁי) + 2nd masculine plural pronominal suffix (כֶם). Irregular plural from אִשָּׁה; construct form governs the attached suffix.
Rendering RationaleThe noun derives from אִשָּׁה, "woman," the feminine counterpart to אִישׁ (man). The form is feminine plural in construct with a 2nd person masculine plural suffix, so the rendering preserves both the plural (“women/wives”) and the possessive “your” addressed to a group of males.
