ROSALES ACOSTA, Dempsey. Re-discovering the Semantics of אמן in Qal. Theol. Xave. [online]. 2017, vol.67, n.184, pp.431-460. ISSN 0120-3649.  https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.tx67-184.rsq.

This study presents a philological and semantic essay of the verb אמן in order to uncover the semantic Wortfeld of its qal conjugation. The most of philological and exegetic studies omit the analysis of this conjugation because they consider it insignificant and without any semantic value. Thus, they focus their studies on the nifal and hifil forms as the basic semantic platform that permeates all the grammatical forms of the shoresh אמן. This essay proposes a different opinion. The qal form is the primeval semantic substratum that permeates all the grammatical forms of the lexeme אמן, becoming the semantic platform upon which the meanings of the nifal and hifil conjugations are built.
