your heart
| Root | לבב (l-b-b) |
| Core Meanings | heart, inner self, mind, will, intention, understanding |
| Semantic Range | inner person, mind, understanding, will, intention, courage, desire, emotional core, center or midst (figurative) |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical anthropology, the "heart" is the core of human identity—the locus of thought, decision, moral response, and covenant loyalty. It represents the inner orientation of a person toward YHWH, encompassing intellect, emotion, and volition rather than emotion alone. |
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine singular noun in construct (לֵב → לִבֵּי/לִבֵּ) with 2nd person feminine singular pronominal suffix (-ךְ), yielding "heart of you (fem. sg.)." |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun לֵב (from the root לבב) denotes the inner heart—the seat of thought, will, and emotion. The form is masculine singular construct with a second feminine singular suffix, meaning "your heart" addressed to one female; English does not mark this gender distinction, but the possessive "your" reflects the 2fs suffix. |
