contribution, offering (a secondary or subdivision portion set apart as sacred)
This denominative noun derives from תְּרוּמָה (contribution, heave offering) and denotes something that belongs to or is associated with a contribution—a kind of secondary or attendant offering. The form functions adjectivally (substantivized), meaning 'what pertains to a contribution.' In Ezekiel 48:12, it describes a strip of land designated for the priests within Ezekiel's visionary temple scheme. However, BDB suggests the text is likely corrupt and should simply read תְּרוּמָה. The semantic field remains the domain of sacred contributions and dedicated portions set apart for priestly use.
Senses
1. sense 1 — Denotes a contribution or offering, specifically a subdivision or attendant portion within a larger sacred allotment. Ezekiel 48:12 uses this term (or possibly a corrupted form of תְּרוּמָה) to describe the priestly portion of land in the eschatological temple vision. The denominative form suggests 'what belongs to a contribution'—a secondary offering or subportion. Spanish 'ofrenda alzada' (heave offering) and French 'offrande' point to the semantic domain of sacred contributions. The term fits Ezekiel's detailed schema of land division, where nested layers of sanctity create zones of increasing holiness toward the temple center. 1×
