SIBI-P1 H183-08
you will crave
| Root | אוה (ʾ-w-h) |
| Core Meanings | desire, longing, craving, yearning |
| Semantic Range | to desire, long for, crave, yearn after, lust for, covet intensely |
| Conceptual Significance | The root אוה frequently denotes deep inner longing—whether for physical satisfaction, possessions, or even righteous desires. It highlights the powerful pull of inward appetite, which in biblical theology can lead either toward faithful pursuit of what is good or toward destructive coveting when misdirected. |
| Morphological Notes | Hithpael imperfect (yiqtol), 2nd person masculine singular from אוה. The Hithpael stem often expresses reflexive or inward-directed action; here it conveys entering into a state of longing or craving. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is Hithpael imperfect, second masculine singular, expressing an ongoing or future reflexive action: "you will crave/long." The Hithpael stem conveys an inward, self-engaged desire—thus "crave" preserves both the reflexive nuance and the intensity inherent in the root אוה. |
