| Root | גדר (g-d-r) |
| Core Meanings | to wall up, enclose, fence in, hedge about, build a barrier |
| Semantic Range | wall, fence, hedge, enclosure, boundary barrier, fortified line |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical thought, a גֶּדֶר represents protection, separation, and defined boundaries—whether for vineyards, cities, or flocks. It can symbolize divine protection, social order, or the removal of restraint when broken down. |
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular noun in construct state (Ncmsc) with prefixed conjunction וְ ("and"). The construct form links it grammatically to a following noun, expressing possession or specification. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun גֶּדֶר derives from the root גדר, meaning to enclose or fence in. Rendering it as "boundary-wall" preserves the sense of an enclosing barrier. The morphology (masculine singular construct with prefixed conjunction) is reflected by "and ... of," indicating its construct relationship to a following noun. |
