SIBI-P1 H6235-03

ten (feminine count)

Rootעשר (ʿ-ś-r)
Core Meaningsten, tenth, accumulation, abundance, enrichment
Semantic Rangethe number ten; a unit of ten; part of compound numbers (e.g., teens); by extension in related forms, a tenth or tithe, or abundance linked to accumulation
Conceptual SignificanceTen signifies completeness or fullness in biblical thought (e.g., Ten Words/Commandments). As the base of the decimal system, it often marks a full measure or ordered total within covenantal and legal contexts.
Morphological NotesCardinal number, feminine singular absolute (HAcfsa). Derived from the root עשר, which conveys the concept of ten or grouping by tens. Distinct from related verbal forms meaning "to tithe" or "to enrich."
Rendering RationaleThe form עָשֶׂר is a cardinal number in the feminine singular absolute (cfsa), used when counting feminine nouns. Rendering it as "ten (feminine count)" preserves its numerical sense rooted in the idea of accumulation while explicitly reflecting its grammatical gender.
