and knowledge
| Root | ידע (y-d-ʿ) |
| Core Meanings | to know, to perceive, to understand, to experience, to recognize relationally |
| Semantic Range | knowledge, understanding, discernment, awareness, skill, experiential knowing, moral insight |
| Conceptual Significance | In the Hebrew Bible, דַּעַת signifies more than intellectual awareness; it often denotes relational and covenantal knowing, especially of יהוה. It is central to wisdom literature, where true knowledge is rooted in the fear of יהוה and expresses itself in righteous living. |
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common feminine singular (absolute or construct), often with prefixed conjunction וְ (“and”) or preposition בְ (“in”). Derived from the verbal root ידע. |
| Rendering Rationale | דַּעַת is a feminine singular noun derived from ידע (“to know”), denoting knowledge as the result or state of knowing. The rendering "and knowledge" preserves the singular noun form and reflects the prefixed conjunction וְ (“and”) seen in most occurrences; where it appears in construct, the sense is "knowledge of," maintaining the same singular feminine form. |
