the Continuance

Rootתמד (t-m-d)
Core Meaningscontinuance, perpetuity, constancy, regular extension, unbroken duration
Semantic Rangecontinually, constantly, perpetually, regularly, the continual rite, the daily offering
Conceptual Significanceתָּמִיד expresses the idea of unbroken regularity central to Israel’s worship—especially the daily burnt offering that symbolized ongoing covenant presence and devotion. It embodies the concept of faithful continuity before יהוה, marking sacred time through steady, perpetual service.
Morphological NotesDefinite article (הַ) + masculine singular noun absolute (תָּמִיד). Functions substantivally, often as a technical term for the regular daily offering.
Rendering RationaleThe form הַתָּמִיד is a masculine singular absolute noun with the definite article, so it is rendered as a singular substantive, "the Continuance." This preserves the root sense of ongoing, unbroken duration (תמד) while reflecting the definite, masculine singular morphology.
