| Root | פרך (p-r-k) |

| Semantic Range | veil, curtain, partition, screen, separator—especially the inner curtain of the sanctuary |
| Conceptual Significance | The פָּרֹכֶת is the sacred curtain in the Tabernacle and Temple that separates the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place, embodying the theological concept of separation between the holy presence of יהוה and the people. |
| Morphological Notes | Definite article הַ + feminine singular noun (Ncfsa), likely derived from an active participial form of the root פרך; functions as a substantive denoting a specific object. |

Rendering it as "the separating curtain" preserves the active participial sense (that which separates) while reflecting its singular feminine form and definiteness. |
