SIBI-P1 H899-12

a covering-garment

Rootבגד (b-g-d)
Core Meaningsto act treacherously, deal deceitfully, act covertly, betray
Semantic Rangegarment, clothing, robe, cloth, covering; by extension treachery or deceit (through association with the verbal root)
Conceptual SignificanceBeyond denoting ordinary clothing, בֶּגֶד reflects the cultural and theological symbolism of garments in Scripture—representing status, identity, and sometimes concealed intent. Its connection to the root meaning "to betray" enriches prophetic wordplay where outward covering contrasts with inward faithlessness.
Morphological NotesCommon masculine singular noun; appears in both absolute (HNcmsa) and construct (HNcmsc) states. No pronominal suffix in the listed forms.
Rendering Rationaleבֶּגֶד is a masculine singular noun (absolute or construct) meaning a garment. Rendering it as "a covering-garment" preserves the singular form and highlights the underlying root idea of covering and covert action from בגד (to act treacherously), maintaining the semantic link between clothing and concealed or deceptive action.
