SIBI-P1 H4687-17
my charges
| Root | צוה (ṣ-w-h) |
| Core Meanings | to command, to charge, to commission, to appoint |
| Semantic Range | commands, authoritative directives, ordinances, prescribed duties, covenantal requirements |
| Conceptual Significance | In the Hebrew Bible, מִצְוֹת often denotes covenantal obligations issued by YHWH. "My charges" underscores the personal authority of the speaker (often YHWH) and highlights the relational dimension of obedience within the covenant framework. |
| Morphological Notes | Common feminine plural noun in construct (מִצְוֹת) + 1cs pronominal suffix (־ַי), yielding "my …"; from the root צוה (to command). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun מִצְוֹתַי is the feminine plural construct form of מִצְוָה with a 1st common singular suffix, literally "charges of me." Rendering it as "my charges" preserves the plural form and the possessive suffix while reflecting the root צוה, which conveys the act of issuing an authoritative command or commission. |
