SIBI-P1 H5493-20
one causing to turn aside
| Root | סור (s-w-r) |
| Core Meanings | turn aside, depart, withdraw, remove, deviate |
| Semantic Range | causing to turn aside, removing, taking away, withdrawing, averting, leading away, turning someone from a path or course |
| Conceptual Significance | From the root סור, a key biblical verb for turning aside—whether from evil (repentance) or from covenant faithfulness—this causative form highlights agency in redirecting or removing. It can describe divine removal of blessing or protection, human removal of objects or obstacles, or the act of leading others away from a path, underscoring themes of redirection and separation in covenant life. |
| Morphological Notes | Hiphil participle, masculine singular, absolute form. The Hiphil stem conveys causative action ('to cause to turn aside, to remove'). As a participle, it functions substantivally or adjectivally to describe an ongoing or characteristic action. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form מֵסִיר is a Hiphil masculine singular participle from סור. The Hiphil stem gives a causative sense ('cause to turn aside'), and the masculine singular participle denotes 'one who is causing to turn aside,' preserving both the root idea of turning and the agentive force of the stem. |
