SIBI-P1 H4791-12
from the lofty height
| Root | רום (r-w-m) |
| Core Meanings | height, exaltation, rising, loftiness, elevation |
| Semantic Range | physical height, elevated place, high heavens, exalted realm, dignity, lofty status, metaphorical elevation |
| Conceptual Significance | מָרוֹם often denotes the exalted dwelling of YHWH or the heavenly realm, emphasizing divine transcendence and supremacy. It can also describe earthly high places or metaphorical pride, linking physical elevation with honor or exaltation in biblical thought. |
| Morphological Notes | Preposition מִן ("from") with assimilation to the following מ, attached to a masculine singular absolute noun (Ncmsa). No article is present; the form is singular and not construct. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun מָרוֹם derives from the root רום, conveying elevation or exalted height. The prefixed preposition מִן (assimilated here as מִמּ־) means "from," and the noun is masculine singular absolute, hence the singular rendering "height." "Lofty" preserves the root sense of exalted elevation rather than mere physical altitude. |
