SIBI-P1 H1288-99
he will grant blessing
| Root | ברך (b-r-k) |
| Core Meanings | kneeling, blessing, bestowing favor, invoking benefit |
| Semantic Range | to bless, to bestow benefit, to invoke divine favor, to praise, to salute; in rare euphemistic usage, to curse; originally associated with kneeling in reverence. |
| Conceptual Significance | ברך is central to covenant theology, expressing the flow of divine favor from God to humanity and the responsive praise of humanity toward God. Blessing signifies life, fruitfulness, covenant continuity, and relational harmony between the divine and human realms. |
| Morphological Notes | Piel imperfect (yiqtol) 3rd person masculine singular of ברך. The Piel stem commonly expresses the act of blessing or pronouncing blessing upon someone, often with an intensive or declarative nuance. The imperfect form may denote future, habitual, or jussive sense depending on context. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb is Piel imperfect 3rd person masculine singular, indicating an intensive or declarative action performed by “he.” Rendering it as “he will grant blessing” preserves the active bestowal sense of the Piel stem and reflects the masculine singular subject inherent in the morphology, while retaining the root connection to the act of blessing that derives from kneeling in homage. |
