shedding-women
| Root | שפך (š-p-k) |
| Core Meanings | to pour out, spill, shed, gush forth, expend |
| Semantic Range | spilling or shedding blood; pouring out liquids (water, libations); figuratively pouring out soul, complaint, or life; expending resources |
| Conceptual Significance | The root often carries judicial and covenantal weight, especially in contexts of bloodshed, where shedding blood incurs guilt and defiles the land. As a participial form, it can mark individuals characterized by violent or wasteful outpouring, highlighting moral accountability in Israel’s ethical theology. |
| Morphological Notes | Qal active participle, feminine plural (absolute and construct forms attested). The participle denotes ongoing or characteristic action: "those (fem.) who are shedding/pouring out." |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is Qal active participle feminine plural, denoting females characterized by the action of pouring out or shedding. "Shedding-women" preserves the concrete root sense of spilling or pouring out (often of blood) while clearly reflecting the feminine plural morphology. |
