SIBI-P1 H3824-19
your inner heart
| Root | לבב (l-b-b) |
| Core Meanings | inner being, heart, mind, will, understanding, courage |
| Semantic Range | the physical heart; the inner self; mind; understanding; will; moral character; courage; intention; conscience |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical thought, the לֵבָב is the center of cognition, volition, and devotion—not merely emotion. It is the locus of covenant faithfulness, repentance, and obedience, making "your inner heart" the focal point of one’s relationship to YHWH. |
| Morphological Notes | Hebrew noun common masculine singular in construct (לְבָב) with second masculine singular pronominal suffix (ךָ), literally "heart of you" addressed to one male individual. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun לֵבָב denotes the inner organ as the seat of thought, will, and intention. Rendering it "inner heart" preserves the root sense of interiority and depth, while "your" reflects the masculine singular pronominal suffix (2ms) attached in the construct form. |
