SIBI-P1 H6438-03
a turning-corner
| Root | פנה (p-n-h) |
| Core Meanings | turning, facing, directing, changing direction, orientation |
| Semantic Range | corner of a building, turning point, chief cornerstone, extremity, structural angle, pivotal point |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical usage, the "corner" often symbolizes structural strength and foundational stability (e.g., the cornerstone). As a place of turning, it also carries metaphorical weight for decisive change or leadership, especially in prophetic and messianic imagery. |
| Morphological Notes | Primarily a feminine singular absolute noun (HNcfsa). One occurrence appears in construct with a 3rd feminine singular suffix ("her turning-corner"), and one form reflects the Qal perfect 3ms verb "he turned" from the same root. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun פִּנָּה is a feminine singular form derived from the root פנה (to turn, face, or direct oneself). Rendering it as "turning-corner" preserves the concrete image of a place where direction changes, maintaining both the root sense of turning and the feminine singular grammatical form. |
