What Original Readers Understood
ExploredThe Hebrew word שֶׂכְוִי (sekh.vi) is defined as "heart". This word is part of the semantic domain of "Body & Health", indicating its focus on physical or bodily aspects, rather than spiritual or emotional ones. Given its limited occurrence in the Bible (only 1 time), the word's range of usage is restricted, and its significance may be more nuanced. However, its association with the physical body suggests that it could be related to bodily functions, emotions, or sensations that are linked to the heart.
