SIBI-P1 H7621-12

and into a sworn-binding

Morphological NotesCommon feminine singular absolute noun with prefixed conjunction וּ ("and") and preposition בִ ("in/into"). No pronominal suffix. Derived from the root שבע in a passive-participial sense, indicating something established by oath.
Rendering RationaleThe noun שְׁבוּעָה derives from the root שבע, "to swear" (literally connected with "seven," reflecting the ancient practice of sevening oneself in oath-making). Rendering it as "sworn-binding" preserves the passive sense ("something sworn") and the idea of solemn obligation. The conjunction וּ and preposition בִ are reflected in "and into," and the singular form is preserved with "a."
