SIBI-P1 H5493-11
you (masculine plural) have caused to turn aside
| Root | סור (s-w-r) |
| Core Meanings | turning aside, departing, withdrawing, removing, deviating |
| Semantic Range | to remove, to take away, to cause to depart, to turn aside, to withdraw, to avert, to eliminate |
| Conceptual Significance | This verb often marks covenantal deviation or reform—either turning aside from YHWH (apostasy) or causing idols and impurities to be removed. It expresses decisive separation, whether from evil or from faithfulness, and thus carries strong theological weight in narratives of obedience and rebellion. |
| Morphological Notes | Hiphil (causative) perfect, 2nd person masculine plural from סור. The Hiphil stem gives a causative nuance: "to cause to turn aside, remove." |
| Rendering Rationale | The root סור conveys the idea of turning aside or departing. In the Hiphil stem it takes a causative sense, meaning "to cause to turn aside" or "to remove." The morphology indicates Hiphil perfect, second person masculine plural, so the rendering reflects a completed action performed by "you" (masculine plural). |
