cham.mah refers to solar warmth, including Job’s statement of going without it.

The attested uses associate the noun with solar warmth: Isaiah 24:23 and Isaiah 30:26 place it in clauses the APB presents with the sun and its light, while Job 30:28 states that the speaker goes without heat. The APB does not make the term’s individual contribution clear in Psalm 19:7 or Song of Songs 6:10.

1. Solar warmth and its absence · dominant

   In Isaiah 24:23 and Isaiah 30:26, the absolute feminine singular form occurs where the APB renders clauses about the sun and its light; Isaiah 30:26 contains the form twice in the comparison of the moon’s light and the sun’s increased light. In Job 30:28, the same form occurs in the speaker’s statement, rendered by the APB as going “without heat.” Psalm 19:7 has the construct form, and Song of Songs 6:10 has the absolute form, but the supplied translation does not isolate their contribution.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the relevant Isaiah clauses with “the sun” and “the light of the sun,” and Job 30:28 with “without heat.” In Psalm 19:7 and Song of Songs 6:10, the translation does not visibly represent the term’s contribution.
