SIBI-P1 H6946-03
Qadesh (Holy-Place)
| Morphological Notes | Primarily a masculine singular proper noun (HNp) referring to a place name; one occurrence reflects Qal perfect 2nd masculine singular (HVpv2ms) from the verbal root קדשׁ. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name derives from the root קדשׁ meaning "to be holy, set apart." Rendering it as "Qadesh (Holy-Place)" preserves the proper noun form (masculine singular) while making explicit the root sense of sacred set-apartness embedded in the name. In its verbal occurrence (Qal perfect 2ms), it carries the sense "you were holy" or "you became set apart," reflecting second masculine singular form. |
