SIBI-P1 H7272-49
and his two feet
| Root | רגל (r-g-l) |
| Core Meanings | foot, step, walking, treading, journeying |
| Semantic Range | foot, feet, step, stride, base, pedestal, journey, manner of walking; by extension movement, possession ("at one’s feet"), or locality. |
| Conceptual Significance | "Feet" in the biblical text often symbolize movement, dominion, humility, or pilgrimage. They can represent one’s path in life, subjection (placing under the feet), or embodied presence in a location. |
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ + noun common feminine dual construct (רַגְלֵי) + 3ms pronominal suffix; literally "and the two feet of him." The dual form denotes the natural pair. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun רֶגֶל ("foot") appears here in the feminine dual construct form רַגְלֵי with a 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix ("his"), preceded by the conjunction וְ ("and"). Rendering it as "his two feet" preserves the explicit dual number in Hebrew while maintaining the concrete, root-based sense of physical feet associated with walking and movement. |
