SIBI-P1 H5139-01

the consecrated one

Rootנזר (n-z-r)
Core Meaningsseparation, consecration, dedication, abstention
Semantic Rangea Nazirite under a sacred vow, one set apart for special dedication, a consecrated prince or leader (figurative), an unpruned vine (metaphorically set apart)
Conceptual SignificanceIn Israel’s covenant life, the Nazirite embodied voluntary separation unto YHWH through abstention and visible distinction, symbolizing heightened holiness and devotion. The term highlights the biblical theme that consecration involves being set apart from the ordinary for sacred purpose.
Morphological NotesDefinite article (הַ) + common masculine singular noun absolute (נָזִיר). No pronominal suffix; definite by article.
Rendering RationaleThe noun נָזִיר derives from the root נזר, meaning "to separate" or "to consecrate." As a masculine singular absolute noun with the definite article ("the"), הַנָּזִיר is faithfully rendered "the consecrated one," preserving both the core idea of separation unto sacred purpose and the masculine singular form indicated by the morphology.
