in the strike-affliction
| Root | נגע (n-g-ʿ) |
| Core Meanings | touch, strike, reach, afflict |
| Semantic Range | blow, stroke, wound, plague, affliction, mark of disease (especially skin disease), divinely sent strike |
| Conceptual Significance | נֶגַע often denotes a divinely permitted or sent affliction, especially visible skin conditions that render a person ritually unclean. It reflects the idea of a tangible "strike" or "touch" from God, linking physical affliction with covenantal and communal consequences. |
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular noun (Ncmsa) with prefixed ב + definite article (assimilated), meaning "in the." The noun is in the absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun נֶגַע derives from the root נגע, meaning "to touch" or "to strike," and refers to a blow or afflicting mark. The form is masculine singular absolute with a prefixed preposition and definite article ("in the"), so the rendering preserves both the singular form and the sense of a specific, definite afflicting strike. |
