Rootטרד (ṭ-r-d)
Core Meaningsdriving on, thrusting away, harassing, pursuing, restlessness
Semantic Rangeto drive away, expel, harass, pursue closely, disturb, cause restlessness; by extension, continual or relentless activity
Conceptual SignificanceThe root conveys the idea of relentless pressure or pursuit, whether physical expulsion or ongoing harassment. In biblical thought, it can depict both human oppression and the unsettling condition of one driven without rest, highlighting themes of instability, exile, and divine or human pursuit.
Morphological NotesQal participle, masculine singular absolute (טֹרֵד / טוֹרֵד); also attested in Hiphil imperfect 2ms form (תוֹרֵד) meaning "you cause to drive away." The participle denotes an ongoing or characteristic action.
Rendering RationaleThe form represented by the lexeme (HVqrmsa) is a Qal participle masculine singular absolute, describing one characterized by the action of the root. "A driving-on one" preserves the core sense of persistent driving or harassing while reflecting the masculine singular participial form.
