completeness
| Root | תמם (t-m-m) |
| Core Meanings | completeness, wholeness, finishedness, integrity, blamelessness |
| Semantic Range | wholeness, integrity, innocence, blamelessness, moral uprightness, completeness of character or action |
| Conceptual Significance | תֹּם expresses the ideal of undivided loyalty and moral wholeness before יהוה, describing a life that is complete and undivided in devotion. It conveys not sinless perfection but covenantal integrity—being whole rather than fractured in faithfulness. |
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular abstract noun (absolute state) from the root תמם (Qal: to be complete, finished, whole). Functions substantivally to denote a state or quality. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun תֹּם is a masculine singular abstract noun derived from the root תמם, "to be complete, finished, whole." Rendering it as "completeness" preserves the core sense of wholeness and moral integrity inherent in the root while accurately reflecting its singular, abstract form. |
