weightiness
| Root | כבד (k-b-d) |
| Core Meanings | heaviness, weight, density, honor, importance |
| Semantic Range | weight, heaviness; honor, dignity, reputation; splendor, majesty; abundance or richness; the manifest presence or glory of YHWH |
| Conceptual Significance | כָּבוֹד expresses the idea that true honor and glory are rooted in "weight"—substance, significance, and enduring worth. When used of YHWH, it conveys the tangible, awe-inspiring manifestation of His presence and majesty, emphasizing His incomparable importance and reality. |
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular common noun in the absolute state (HNcbsa); from the root כבד. No pronominal suffix or construct relation in this form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun כָּבוֹד derives from the root כבד (k-b-d), meaning "to be heavy" or "weighty." Rendering it as "weightiness" preserves the concrete sense of heaviness that underlies its figurative meanings of honor and glory. The form is masculine singular absolute, reflected by the singular English noun without possessive or plural marking. |
