SIBI-P1 H1320-01
in the flesh
| Root | בשר (b-ś-r) |
| Core Meanings | flesh, bodily substance, fresh meat, kinship, living body |
| Semantic Range | physical flesh or meat; the human body; living beings in their mortality; blood-relations (kin); humanity in its frailty; sometimes sexual or anatomical reference by euphemism. |
| Conceptual Significance | בָּשָׂר underscores human physicality, vulnerability, and kinship ties. In biblical theology it often highlights the contrast between mortal flesh and the enduring power of the Spirit, as well as the shared bond of humanity as "one flesh." |
| Morphological Notes | Preposition בְּ with assimilated definite article (בַּ־) + noun common masculine singular absolute (בָּשָׂר). No pronominal suffix; definite by article. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun בָּשָׂר is a masculine singular absolute meaning "flesh" or "bodily substance." The prefixed בַּ־ is the preposition "in" with the definite article, yielding "in the flesh." This rendering preserves the singular masculine form and reflects the concrete, bodily sense inherent in the root. |
