SIBI-P1 H8141-26
his cycle-year
| Root | שנה (sh-n-h) |
| Core Meanings | to repeat, to change, to do again; cycle, yearly revolution |
| Semantic Range | a calendar year; a cycle of seasons; a regnal year; age or lifetime; annually or yearly span |
| Conceptual Significance | The "year" in biblical thought marks divinely ordered cycles—agricultural, liturgical, and regnal—reflecting appointed times and recurring seasons established by YHWH. As a measure of covenantal history and personal lifespan, it situates human events within sacred, repeating rhythms of time. |
| Morphological Notes | Hebrew noun, common feminine singular construct (שְׁנַת) with 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix (-וֹ), yielding "year of him" or "his year." |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun שָׁנֶה derives from the root שנה, conveying repetition or cyclical return. Rendering it as "cycle-year" preserves this sense of recurring revolution, while the 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix is accurately reflected by "his." The feminine singular construct form governs the possessive relationship. |
