to my sovereign-master

Rootאדן (ʾ-d-n)
Core Meaningsrule, mastery, authority, lordship, ownership
Semantic Rangelord, master, owner, ruler, husband (as master of a household), sovereign (human or divine), title of respect
Conceptual Significanceאָדוֹן expresses hierarchical authority and relational submission, whether in social, political, or divine contexts. When used of humans it denotes recognized authority; when directed toward God it affirms covenantal sovereignty and personal allegiance.
Morphological NotesPreposition ל ("to") prefixed to a masculine singular noun in construct form (אָדוֹן) with 1cs pronominal suffix ("-י" = "my"). The construct form with suffix yields אֲדֹנִי ("my lord/master").
Rendering RationaleThe noun derives from the root א-ד-נ, conveying rule and mastery. The form is masculine singular with a 1st person common singular suffix ("my"), and prefixed with ל ("to"), so "to my sovereign-master" preserves both the relational possession and the sense of personal authority inherent in the root.
