SIBI-P1 `H7607-03`

flesh-kin

Root	שׁאר (š-ʾ-r)
Core Meanings	remain, remnant, that which is left, near relation
Semantic Range	physical flesh of the body; meat or food; blood-relative; near kinsman or kinswoman; one’s own bodily relation
Conceptual Significance	שְׁאֵר expresses the intimate bond of shared flesh, grounding Israelite concepts of kinship, family obligation, and covenantal loyalty in bodily nearness. It underlies laws concerning marriage, inheritance, and redemption, where "flesh-kin" denotes those bound by shared life and covenant identity.
Morphological Notes	Masculine singular noun; appears primarily in construct state (HNcmsc) and once in absolute (HNcmsa). No pronominal suffix in the given forms.
Rendering Rationale	The noun derives from the root שׁאר, "to remain," conveying what remains close or attached—hence one’s own flesh or near blood-relation. The form is masculine singular (most often in construct), so the rendering preserves a singular sense while reflecting both physical flesh and kinship closeness embedded in the root concept.
