SIBI-P1 H2574-01

heat-of

Rootיחם (y-ḥ-m)
Core Meaningsheat, warmth, burning, fever, inflamed passion
Semantic RangeLiteral heat, burning temperature, fever; figuratively anger, wrath, rage, hot displeasure; by extension venom or poison (as burning heat within).
Conceptual Significanceחֵמָה frequently describes intense human anger and especially the burning wrath of יהוה, portraying divine judgment as consuming heat. The imagery of heat conveys both emotional intensity and destructive power, linking physical sensation with moral and spiritual consequence.
Morphological NotesCommon feminine singular noun in construct state (cfsc) from the root יחם ("to be hot, to grow warm"). In construct, it links to a following noun ("heat of..."). The same consonantal form may also designate the proper noun חֲמָת (Hamath), but the lexeme here reflects the common noun חֵמָה.
Rendering RationaleThe noun חֵמָה is a feminine singular noun meaning "heat" in both literal and figurative senses. The morphology HNcfsc indicates feminine singular construct, which is reflected by rendering it "heat-of," preserving its construct relationship and singular feminine form while maintaining the root sense of burning heat that underlies figurative meanings like wrath.
