To grasp the meaning of a Quranic term a mere definition does not suffice and it requires knowledge of etymology which can provide its historical background and contextual occurrence. Tabrasi, a distinguished Shiite exegete, in his interpretation of Section 27 of Majma-ol-Bayan, undertook an etymological study by analyzing derivations, syntax and word usage among Arabs, and at times the words’ evolutionary progression. In spite of attending to the etymology, he didn’t overlook the high importance of context and circumstantial and discourse-based evidence to interpret the holy Verses of the Quran. The article is to offer an explanation of semantics and its sub-categories plus its function in Majma-ol-Bayan , An Interpretation, and Tabrasi’s view about the issue.
