SIBI-P1 H2091-10
and from gold
| Root | זהב (z-h-b) |
| Core Meanings | gold, shining metal, yellow brilliance, shimmering substance |
| Semantic Range | literal gold as precious metal; something gold-colored or yellow; figurative reference to value, purity, or splendor. |
| Conceptual Significance | Gold in the Hebrew Bible symbolizes supreme value, purity, royalty, and divine splendor. Its association with brilliance and durability makes it a frequent metaphor for what is precious and enduring. |
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction ו + preposition מִן prefixed to a masculine singular absolute noun (Ncmsa). No pronominal suffix; singular form maintained. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form consists of the conjunction ו ("and") plus the preposition מִן ("from") attached to the masculine singular absolute noun זָהָב ("gold"). Rendering it as "and from gold" preserves the singular masculine noun and reflects the root sense of a shining, golden substance. |
