SIBI-P1 H802-45
and wife of
| Root | אשה (ʾ-š-h) |
| Core Meanings | woman, female, wife, female counterpart |
| Semantic Range | woman, wife, female person, married woman, sometimes used distributively (each/every woman) or idiomatically in relational phrases |
| Conceptual Significance | אִשָּׁה denotes the female counterpart to אִישׁ (man), often highlighting covenantal marriage, household identity, and lineage. In construct ("wife of"), it situates a woman within familial and social relationships central to biblical narrative and law. |
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ (and) + noun common feminine singular construct (Ncfsc) from אִשָּׁה. The construct form אֵשֶׁת links the noun to a following genitive ("wife of …"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The form אֵשֶׁת is the feminine singular construct of אִשָּׁה (woman/wife), indicating a relational phrase, "wife of." The prefixed וְ adds "and," so "and wife of" preserves both the construct relationship and the feminine singular form. |
