garment of
| Root | שית (š-y-t) |
| Core Meanings | to set, place, put, appoint, lay upon |
| Semantic Range | garment, attire, clothing, covering worn upon the body |
| Conceptual Significance | The term reflects the Hebrew conceptualization of clothing as something actively "placed" upon a person, often symbolizing status, identity, or righteousness in biblical thought. |
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular noun in the construct state (HNcmsc), indicating possession or specification by a following noun. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun שִׁית (shîyth) denotes a garment as something "put on," deriving from the root שית meaning "to set/place." The masculine singular construct form (HNcmsc) requires the rendering "garment of," preserving its grammatical number and construct relationship while retaining the root sense of something placed upon the body. |
