סְפִינָה

# The Hebrew Word סְפִינָה (se.phi.nah) The Hebrew word סְפִינָה denotes a ship—a vessel designed for travel or transport across water. Based on the lexical data provided, this term appears only once in the biblical text, which limits what can be determined about its full range of usage or semantic nuances from biblical sources alone. The single occurrence of this word in Scripture suggests it may have been a less common term in biblical Hebrew for referring to ships, or it may have appeared in a specialized or particular narrative context. Without additional occurrences to establish patterns of usage, we cannot determine whether the word carried specific connotations (such as size, type, or purpose) or whether it was used interchangeably with other Hebrew maritime vocabulary. The rarity of its attestation makes it difficult to assess its significance within biblical literature or whether it represented a particular era or type of seafaring vessel.
