remainder of

Root	יתר (y-t-r)
Core Meanings	excess, remainder, surplus, abundance, superiority, what remains
Semantic Range	remainder, surplus, excess, leftover portion, advantage, superiority, profit, abundance
Conceptual Significance	The term highlights the biblical theme of what remains—whether material surplus, surviving remnant, or advantage. In theological contexts, it can point to the concept of remnant and divine preservation, as well as the fleeting or limited nature of earthly "advantage" when contrasted with covenant faithfulness.
Morphological Notes	Masculine singular noun; most occurrences are in the construct state (יֶתֶר), linking it to a following noun ("remainder of X"). The lexeme also appears as a proper noun (HNp), Yether/Jether, derived from the same root idea of abundance or preeminence.
Rendering Rationale	The noun derives from the root יתר (y-t-r), conveying the idea of excess or what remains beyond a base amount. The morphology (HNcmsc) indicates a masculine singular noun in the construct state, which naturally takes a following complement; thus "remainder of" preserves both the root sense of surplus and the grammatical requirement of the construct form.
