SIBI-P1 H5087-07
he vows
| Root | נדר (n-d-r) |
| Core Meanings | to vow, to make a binding promise, to dedicate by pledge |
| Semantic Range | to vow, to make a solemn promise, to pledge something to God, to bind oneself by oath, to dedicate by vow |
| Conceptual Significance | Vowing in the Hebrew Bible represents a voluntary but binding commitment before יהוה, often involving dedication of offerings or service. Such vows carry serious covenantal weight; failure to fulfill a vow is treated as sin, underscoring the gravity of spoken commitments before God. |
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, imperfect (yiqtol) 3rd masculine singular. The Qal denotes the simple active sense "to vow." The imperfect can indicate future, habitual, or modal action depending on context. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal imperfect 3rd masculine singular form expresses a simple active action performed by a male subject: "he vows" or "he will vow." The rendering preserves the core idea of נדר as making a binding, spoken pledge, especially to God, while accurately reflecting the masculine singular subject and imperfect aspect. |
