SIBI-P1 H8081-02
in the rich oil
| Root | שׁמן (š-m-n) |
| Core Meanings | fatness, richness, luxuriance, abundance |
| Semantic Range | olive oil, anointing oil, perfumed oil, fatness, richness, prosperity, abundance |
| Conceptual Significance | Oil in the Hebrew Bible signifies abundance, blessing, consecration, and vitality. Its association with fatness links it to prosperity and divine favor, as well as ritual anointing for sanctification and kingship. |
| Morphological Notes | Preposition בְּ with assimilated definite article (בַּ־, "in the") + noun שֶׁמֶן, masculine singular absolute. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun שֶׁמֶן derives from the root שׁמן, conveying the idea of fatness or richness. Rendering it as "rich oil" preserves this core sense of luxuriant fatness inherent in the root. The prefixed בַּ־ (beth with definite article) is reflected by "in the," and the masculine singular absolute form is maintained in the singular noun "oil." |
