SIBI-P1 H801-02
fire-offerings of
| Root | אשׁ (ʾ-š) |
| Core Meanings | fire, burning, flame, fiery consumption |
| Semantic Range | burnt-offerings; offerings made by fire; sacrificial portions consumed on the altar; by extension, various sacrificial rites presented to יהוה |
| Conceptual Significance | Fire-offerings represent gifts wholly or partially consumed before יהוה, symbolizing surrender, atonement, covenant loyalty, and the ascent of worship to the divine presence through fire. |
| Morphological Notes | Masculine plural noun in construct state from אִשֶּׁה (fire-offering), Strong’s H801; always governs a following noun indicating to whom or what the fire-offerings belong. |
| Rendering Rationale | The term derives from the root אשׁ (“fire”) and denotes offerings consumed by fire. The form is masculine plural in the construct state (HNcmpc), so the rendering "fire-offerings of" preserves both the fiery root sense and the plural construct relationship requiring a following complement. |
