a foreign man
| Root | זור (z-w-r) |
| Core Meanings | turn aside, depart, be estranged, be foreign, be profane |
| Semantic Range | foreign, strange, outsider, unauthorized person, profane person, adulterer (in participial use) |
| Conceptual Significance | This term marks one who stands outside covenantal or communal boundaries—whether ethnically, ritually, or morally. It often highlights the distinction between the holy and the profane, the covenant member and the outsider, underscoring Israel’s call to separateness and fidelity. |
| Morphological Notes | Adjective, masculine singular absolute (from the root זוּר). Often used substantively to denote a foreign or estranged male individual. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is a masculine singular absolute adjective functioning substantively. "Foreign man" preserves the root idea of one who has turned aside or stands apart from the community, while reflecting the masculine singular morphology in a way English can express. |
