SIBI-P1 H802-27
from a woman
| Root | אנשׁ (ʾ-n-š) |
| Core Meanings | humanity, mortal, personhood, man |
| Semantic Range | woman, wife, female person, each woman, one (feminine), sometimes used idiomatically for "each" or "every." |
| Conceptual Significance | אִשָּׁה represents the female counterpart within the human family, foundational to biblical anthropology, covenant marriage, lineage, and communal identity. The term carries both relational (wife) and general human (woman) dimensions in Israel’s social and theological worldview. |
| Morphological Notes | Preposition מִן ("from") prefixed to אִשָּׁה (common feminine singular absolute). One occurrence reflects the related construct form אִישׁ with 3fs suffix ("her man/husband"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun אִשָּׁה is the feminine counterpart within the human (ʾ-n-š) semantic field, denoting a female person. The form shown (Ncfsa with prefixed מִן) is feminine singular absolute, so the rendering preserves both the feminine singular sense and the prepositional force "from." In the suffixed form ("from her man"), the 3fs suffix is reflected as "her." |
