SIBI-P1 H352-10
mighty rams
| Root | איל (ʾ-y-l) |
| Core Meanings | strength, might, prominence, firmness |
| Semantic Range | ram (male sheep), mighty man, chief or leader, pillar or support, oak or strong tree, structural post |
| Conceptual Significance | The ʾayil embodies visible strength—whether in sacrificial rams, powerful leaders, or sturdy supports. In biblical imagery, it often represents vigor, authority, and structural stability, linking animal strength with social and architectural metaphors of might. |
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine plural absolute noun (HNcmpa). Derived from אַיִל (ʾayil). In some contexts the same consonants may function as a proper noun (e.g., Elim), but the lexical form here is the common noun. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun אַיִל (ʾayil) derives from a root conveying strength or might. In the masculine plural absolute form אֵילִם, it refers to rams as symbols of strength; rendering it "mighty rams" preserves both the concrete image and the underlying root sense of strength, while accurately reflecting the masculine plural morphology. |
