Rootπηγή (pēgē)
Core Meaningsspring, fountain, source, well, flowing supply
Semantic RangeA natural spring or fountain of water; a well; figuratively, a source of blood, life, joy, teaching, or ongoing supply.
Conceptual SignificanceIn biblical usage, πηγή often signifies not merely a physical water source but the originating supply of life and blessing. It can metaphorically describe the source of spiritual life, cleansing, or corruption, highlighting the theological motif of YHWH as the true and living source from which life continually flows.
Morphological NotesGr,N,,,,,NFS = noun, nominative, feminine, singular; Gr,N,,,,,DFS = noun, dative, feminine, singular. The forms indicate a feminine singular noun appearing as either subject (nominative) or indirect object/location (dative).
Rendering RationaleThe rendering “gushing-source” reflects the probable connection to πηγνύμι in the sense of something that bursts or springs forth, emphasizing an active, flowing origin rather than a static well. The feminine singular form is preserved, and the note accounts for both nominative (subject) and dative (to/at) usages attested in the morphology.
