Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

שֹׁרֶשׁ plur. שָֽׁרָשִׁים with suff. שָֽׁרָשָׁיו constr. שָׁרְשֵׁי m.

(1) a root; Syr. ܫܶܪܫܐܳ; compare שֶׁרֶשׁ. Job 30:4; Jeremiah 17:8 and frequently. Figuratively it is

(a) the lowest part of a thing, as of the foot (compare Lat. planta pedis), Job 13:27 of a mountain (Lat. radix), Job 28:9 of the sea, Job 36:30. Hence

(b) a root of controversy is the ground, cause of the controversy, Job 19:28. As nations, when they take up their abode in any country, are said to be planted in it and to take root (see נָטַע ).

(2) a shoot which springs from a root, Isaiah 53:2 hence metaph. שֹׁרֶשׁ יִשַׁי the shoot of Jesse, Isaiah 11:10 of the Messiah; compare ῥίζα Δαυίδ, Revelation 5:5. [There is no need to depart from the usual meaning root.] On the other hand, root (by a metaphor taken from plants and applied to a people) is meant, Isaiah 14:30.

Hence denom. שְׁרשׁוּ and the verb
