SIBI-P1 H906-01

a separated part

Rootבדד (b-d-d)
Core Meaningsseparation, isolation, aloneness, division
Semantic Rangepart, piece, branch, bar, stave, limb, something set apart, alone (in adverbial use with prefixes), only, besides
Conceptual SignificanceThe term reflects the Hebrew concept of separation—whether physical (a branch or bar set apart from a whole) or relational (aloneness). This root idea of being divided or set apart informs biblical themes of isolation, distinction, and consecration.
Morphological NotesHebrew noun, common masculine singular (absolute and construct forms attested). No pronominal suffix. Derived from the verbal root בדד (to be separate, isolated).
Rendering RationaleThe noun בַּד derives from the root בדד, expressing separation or isolation. As a masculine singular noun in absolute or construct form, it is rendered "a separated part," preserving both the singular form and the core sense of something divided off or set apart.
