SIBI-P1 H5158-14

from the torrent-valleys of

Morphological NotesMasculine plural noun in construct form (Ncmpc) from נַחַל, with prefixed preposition מִן ("from") assimilated to the following consonant (dagesh in נ). The construct form links the plural noun to a following genitive.
Rendering RationaleThe noun נַחַל denotes a wadi or seasonal torrent-valley—land shaped by flowing waters. Rendering it as "torrent-valleys" preserves this root imagery of channelled flow. The prefixed מִן ("from") and the masculine plural construct form (נַחֲלֵי) are reflected in "from the … of," indicating plural construct relationship.
