Semantic domains 3 entries
- Containers001003001001003
- נָדָן denotes a sheath, a container designed to hold a sword, its sole occurrence at 1 Chronicles 21:27 describing the LORD commanding the angel to return his sword to its sheath, identifying the word as a holder for a weapon.
- Weapons001003001001020
- The sheath is inherently associated with the weapon it holds, the sword mentioned in the same verse (1 Chronicles 21:27), tying the word to the domain of weaponry even though it names the weapon's container rather than the blade itself.
- Non-Possess002003002018
- This entry carries no independent "Non-Possess" sense of its own; this lexeme's sole occurrence, 1 Chronicles 21:27, describes a sword returning to its sheath, not a relinquishing of possession. The domain is bundle-shared with the lexeme's own broader entry.
