and set!
| Root | שׂום (ś-w-m) |
| Core Meanings | to set, to place, to put, to appoint, to establish |
| Semantic Range | to put, place, lay, appoint, assign, establish, set in order, fix, determine, impose, designate, apply |
| Conceptual Significance | שׂוּם is a foundational verb for acts of establishing order—placing objects, appointing leaders, setting laws, or fixing purposes. It often signals deliberate human or divine action that brings structure, authority, or intention into reality. |
| Morphological Notes | Verb from שׂוּם in the Qal stem; primarily imperative 2nd masculine singular with prefixed וְ (conjunction), "and set!". One occurrence reflects a closely related Qal form, but the dominant usage here is imperative address to a single male. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is Qal imperative masculine singular with prefixed conjunction ("and"), expressing a direct command to one male addressee. "Set" preserves the root sense of placing or establishing something in position, while the imperative captures the volitional force of the verb. |
