the years

Rootשנה (sh-n-h)
Core Meaningsrepetition, change, alteration, cyclical return
Semantic Rangeyear as a calendar cycle; a span of time; an age or era; years as a measure of duration; by extension, long duration or old age.
Conceptual SignificanceIn biblical thought, "years" mark divinely ordered cycles of time, structuring covenantal history, agricultural rhythms, sabbatical observances, and jubilees. The term reflects the recurring, divinely governed patterns embedded in creation and redemptive history.
Morphological NotesNoun common feminine plural absolute with prefixed definite article (הַ־); from lemma שָׁנֶה (year).
Rendering RationaleThe noun שָׁנֶה derives from the root שנה, conveying repetition or cyclical change, reflecting the yearly cycle. The form הַשָּׁנִים is feminine plural absolute with the definite article, thus accurately rendered as "the years," preserving both plurality and definiteness inherent in the morphology.
