the oak, the terebinth (definite noun)
A feminine noun for oak or possibly terebinth tree in Joshua 24:26, where Joshua sets up a stone of witness 'under the oak which is in the sanctuary of the Lord.' The LXX translates as terebinth (τερέμινθος), and BDB suggests reading אֵלָה (terebinth) instead. Such sacred trees marked covenant sites and served as landmarks. The definite article indicates a well-known tree at Shechem's sanctuary.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — Designates the specific sacred tree at Shechem under which Joshua erected a memorial stone in Joshua 24:26. The definite article presumes readers' familiarity with this landmark tree in the Lord's sanctuary. Ancient Israelite practice often associated terebinths or oaks with sacred sites (cf. Genesis 12:6, Judges 9:6). Cross-linguistic glosses (oak, encina, chêne) maintain the arboreal reference, though botanical identification between oak and terebinth species remains debated. Such trees served as enduring witnesses to covenant commitments. 1×
