sin-offering

Rootחטא (ḥ-ṭ-ʾ)
Core Meaningsto miss, to fail, to go astray, to incur guilt
Semantic Rangesin, guilt, offense, punishment for sin, sin offering, purification offering, the condition of sinfulness
Conceptual Significanceחַטָּאת expresses the biblical concept of moral failure as "missing the mark" of covenant faithfulness. It encompasses both the offense itself and the sacrificial means of purification, highlighting the integrated view of guilt and atonement within Israel’s worship and covenant life.
Morphological NotesCommon feminine singular noun (HNcfsa/HNcfsc), appearing in both absolute and construct states; no pronominal suffix in these forms.
Rendering RationaleThe noun derives from the root חטא ("to miss, to fail"), referring to the state or act of missing the mark and, by extension, the offering associated with that failure. The form is a common feminine singular noun (absolute or construct), so the rendering preserves its singular sense as a single "sin-offering."
