SIBI-P1 H6224-01
tenth-part of
| Root | עשר (ʿ-ś-r) |
| Core Meanings | ten, tenth, numerical completeness in a set of ten |
| Semantic Range | tenth (ordinal number), tenth part, tithe, tenth day, tenth month |
| Conceptual Significance | The concept of a "tenth" is foundational in Israel’s sacred calendar (tenth days and months) and in covenantal practice through the tithe, where a tenth portion is set apart as belonging to YHWH, symbolizing completeness and devoted acknowledgment of divine provision. |
| Morphological Notes | Hebrew adjective, ordinal, feminine singular construct (HAofsc); from עֲשִׂירִי ("tenth"), here functioning substantivally to denote a tenth portion in relation to another noun. |
| Rendering Rationale | The term derives from the root עשר ("ten") and is the feminine singular ordinal in construct form. Rendering it as "tenth-part of" preserves the numerical sense of "ten" while reflecting its feminine singular construct morphology, which grammatically requires a following noun ("of"). |
