SIBI-P1 H906-01
a separated part
| Root | בדד (b-d-d) |
| Core Meanings | separation, isolation, aloneness, division |
| Semantic Range | part, piece, branch, bar, stave, limb, something set apart, alone (in adverbial use with prefixes), only, besides |
| Conceptual Significance | The 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 Notes | Hebrew noun, common masculine singular (absolute and construct forms attested). No pronominal suffix. Derived from the verbal root בדד (to be separate, isolated). |
| Rendering Rationale | The 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. |
