SIBI-P1 H7126-37
you (masculine singular) shall draw near
| Root | קרב (q-r-b) |
| Core Meanings | nearness, approach, proximity, drawing close |
| Semantic Range | to come near, approach physically, draw near relationally, advance in battle, come into the presence of, be at hand; in other stems can mean to bring near or present (especially offerings). |
| Conceptual Significance | קרב is central to biblical theology of access and holiness, often describing drawing near to יהוה in worship or sacred space. It highlights the tension between divine holiness and human approach, underscoring both invitation and boundary in covenant relationship. |
| Morphological Notes | Qal imperfect (yiqtol) form of קָרַב; primarily 2nd masculine singular (תִּקְרַב), with one attested 3rd feminine singular form in the data. The Qal stem expresses simple action: to come near or approach. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root קרב conveys the idea of coming into nearness or proximity. In the Qal imperfect 2nd masculine singular, תקרב expresses a future or incomplete action performed by a masculine singular subject, hence "you (masculine singular) shall draw near." This preserves both the core sense of movement into nearness and the specific grammatical person and gender. |
