SIBI-P1 H3476-05
and straightness
| Morphological Notes | Common noun, masculine singular absolute (Ncmsa) with prefixed conjunction וָ (“and”). Abstract noun formed from the root ישר. |
| Rendering Rationale | יֹשֶׁר is a masculine singular absolute noun derived from the root ישר (“to be straight, upright”). Rendering it as “straightness” preserves the concrete root imagery of straightness that underlies moral “uprightness,” and the singular abstract form is maintained. The prefixed conjunction וָ is reflected by “and.” |
