SIBI-P1 H4888-03
anointing-of
| Root | משח (m-š-ḥ) |
| Core Meanings | to smear, to anoint, to consecrate, to dedicate by anointing |
| Semantic Range | the act of anointing, the rite of consecration, anointing oil, consecratory portion or gift associated with anointing |
| Conceptual Significance | Anointing marks divine selection and consecration—especially of priests, kings, and sacred objects—signifying setting apart for holy service and the transmission of covenantal authority. |
| Morphological Notes | Feminine singular noun in the construct state (HNcfsc), from מָשַׁח; denotes the act of anointing or that which pertains to it, grammatically bound to a following genitive. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root משח (“to anoint, smear”), and in the feminine singular construct form (cfsc) it denotes the act or state of anointing belonging to or associated with another noun. Rendering it as “anointing-of” preserves both the core action of the root and the construct relationship indicated by the morphology. |
