SIBI-P1 H1101-04
mixed (feminine singular)
| Root | בלל (b-l-l) |
| Core Meanings | to mix, mingle, blend, confuse, intermix, overflow |
| Semantic Range | mixed, blended, intermingled, mingled with oil (especially of grain offerings), compounded |
| Conceptual Significance | In the sacrificial system, items described as בְּלוּלָה are typically grain offerings mixed with oil, symbolizing consecration, richness, and wholeness in worship. The blending signifies intentional preparation and integration, contrasting with confusion (as at Babel) where mixing produces disorder rather than sanctified unity. |
| Morphological Notes | Qal passive participle, feminine singular absolute (HVqsfsa). The participle functions adjectivally, describing a feminine noun—often fine flour or offering—"having been mixed," frequently with oil. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form בְּלוּלָה is a Qal passive participle feminine singular absolute from בלל, "to mix" or "to blend." The rendering "mixed (feminine singular)" preserves the passive sense of something having been blended and reflects the feminine singular grammatical form indicated in the morphology. |
