SIBI-P1 H779-05
cursed one
| Morphological Notes | Qal passive participle, masculine singular absolute, from the root ארר. Functions adjectivally or substantivally to describe a person or thing under a curse. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form אָרוּר is a Qal passive participle masculine singular absolute, literally meaning "one who is cursed" or "one placed under a curse." Rendering it as "cursed one" preserves the passive force of the stem and reflects the masculine singular morphology while keeping the root idea of being bound under a spoken curse. |
