SIBI-P1 `H5980-01`

to the side of

Root	עמם (ʿ-m-m)
Core Meanings	association, juxtaposition, closeness, facing, being alongside
Semantic Range	beside, alongside, opposite, facing, corresponding to, in front of, in relation to
Conceptual Significance	This term often marks spatial correspondence in descriptions of tribal encampments, temple layout, or ritual arrangement, emphasizing ordered positioning and relational alignment within Israel’s communal and sacred life.
Morphological Notes	Feminine singular noun in construct state (Ncfsc) with prefixed preposition לְ (“to, toward”). The construct form links it directly to a following noun, forming a relational phrase (“to the side of X”).
Rendering Rationale	The noun עֻמָּה carries the idea of something set alongside or facing another. In the feminine singular construct form with the prefixed לְ (“to/toward”), it expresses movement or orientation toward the side or corresponding position of something, hence “to the side of.” This preserves both the spatial-relational sense of the root and the singular construct morphology.
