sin-offering
| Root | חטא (ḥ-ṭ-ʾ) |
| Core Meanings | to miss, to fail, to go astray, to incur guilt |
| Semantic Range | sin, guilt, offense, punishment for sin, sin offering, purification offering, the condition of sinfulness |
| Conceptual Significance | חַטָּאת 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 Notes | Common feminine singular noun (HNcfsa/HNcfsc), appearing in both absolute and construct states; no pronominal suffix in these forms. |
| Rendering Rationale | The 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." |
