H8085 verb

SILEX Entry

Definition

To perceive sound or speech with the ear; by extension, to listen, pay attention, or heed, often with the implication of responding appropriately. In many contexts, carries the sense of attentive or obedient listening, sometimes extending to 'obey,' especially in covenantal or legal passages. Also used causatively ('to make hear,' 'cause to be announced'), with a secondary sense of proclaiming, reporting, or making known information to others. The verb can also connote understanding, discerning, or acknowledging a message or instruction.

Semantic Range

to hear (with the ear), to listen, to heed, to pay attention, to obey, to understand, to perceive, to accept or regard, to cause to be heard (proclaim), to report, to announce, to make a sound

Root / Etymology

Root שׁמע (shin-mem-ayin), meaning 'to hear.' The root fundamentally relates to the function of hearing and attentive recognition, with semantic development reflecting the link between hearing and responding (e.g., hearing and obeying, hearing and understanding, hearing and announcing). The Qal stem typically denotes simple hearing/audition; the Hiphil is causative, 'to cause to hear' or 'to proclaim.'

Historical & Contextual Notes

שָׁמַע is a highly significant verb throughout the Hebrew Bible, used both for physical hearing and for metaphorical or intellectual processes involving attention, evaluation, and response. In covenantal contexts, such as the Shemaʻ (Deut 6:4), the verb expressly combines hearing and obedient response—indicating not merely auditory perception but appropriate action. Its use in legal and prophetic texts often implies adherence to instructions or divine commands. Over time, particularly in later biblical and post-biblical Hebrew, the meaning of 'obey' grows more pronounced, yet biblical usage retains a balance between listening, understanding, and acting. שָׁמַע is broader than simple 'obey' and must be distinguished from verbs like עשה (to do) or ידע (to know), though overlap can occur. English translations that render שָׁמַע as simply 'hear' or 'obey' may thus miss contextual nuances—especially where understanding and response are linked.

Translation Consistency

primary "hear" 42 occurrences

'Hear' is the most common and natural English rendering across this lemma’s uses (forms like heard/hearing predominate). It captures the primary sense of perceiving sound or speech and can be contextually extended to listening, heeding, understanding, or obeying; causative uses can be rendered periphrastically (e.g. 'cause to hear'/'proclaim'). Choosing 'hear' maximizes consistency and natural English across the semantic range.
