Lemmaθυγάτηρ
Strong'sG2364

SIBI-P1 G2364-01

a daughter (female offspring or descendant)

Rootθυγάτηρ (thygatēr)
Core Meaningsdaughter, female child, female descendant, female inhabitant (by Hebraism)
Semantic Rangefemale child, daughter; female descendant; member or inhabitant of a city or people (e.g., “daughter of Zion”); term of endearment in direct address
Conceptual SignificanceIn biblical usage, θυγάτηρ signifies both literal kinship and covenantal or communal identity, especially in phrases like “daughter of Zion,” where it personifies a people or city. It conveys familial belonging, inheritance, and relational intimacy within both household and covenant contexts.
Morphological NotesNoun; nominative feminine singular (NFS) in most occurrences; also attested as vocative feminine singular (VFS) in direct address. Irregular third-declension noun with distinct vocative form θύγατερ.
Rendering RationaleThe rendering preserves the primary familial sense of θυγάτηρ as a female child while also allowing for its extended Hebraic use for a female descendant or member of a people. The nominative feminine singular form is reflected by the singular “a daughter,” indicating a single female offspring functioning as subject (with the vocative form attested elsewhere as direct address, “O daughter”).
