heart of
| Root | לבב (l-b-b) |
| Core Meanings | heart, inner core, inner man, mind, will, seat of understanding and desire |
| Semantic Range | Inner organ; inner self; mind; understanding; will; emotions; courage; conscience; intention; the center or midst of something. |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical thought, the לֵב is the center of a person’s intellectual, volitional, and emotional life—not merely the seat of feelings but of thought and moral decision. It represents the inner core from which obedience, rebellion, wisdom, and faithfulness flow. |
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine singular noun in construct state from the root לבב. The shorter form לֵב functions interchangeably with לֵבָב but often appears in construct. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form לֵב is a masculine singular noun in the construct state (HNcmsc), requiring a following genitive (“heart of …”). Rendering it as "heart of" preserves both the root sense of the inner core (לבב) and the grammatical construct relationship indicated by the morphology. |
