SIBI-P1 H259-17
as one (feminine singular)
| Root | אחד (ʾ-ḥ-d) |
| Core Meanings | unity, oneness, singleness, unity of parts |
| Semantic Range | one, a single (feminine), once, each, unified, together as one |
| Conceptual Significance | From the root expressing unity and singleness, this term often underscores collective harmony or unified action. In biblical theology, forms of אֶחָד contribute to themes of covenant unity, communal solidarity, and the oneness that reflects divine order. |
| Morphological Notes | Preposition כְּ ("as, like") + adjective/numeral אֶחָד in the common feminine singular form אַחַת; absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form כְּאַחַת consists of the preposition כְּ ("as, like") attached to the feminine singular form of אֶחָד ("one"). The rendering "as one" preserves the core idea of unity, while noting the feminine singular form reflected in the morphology (cfsc). |
