and you (masculine plural)

Rootאתה (ʾ-t-h)
Core Meaningssecond-person reference, direct address, personal presence
Semantic Rangeyou (plural), yourselves (plural), direct address to a group, emphatic contrast when paired with other pronouns
Conceptual SignificanceAs a direct second-person plural address, this pronoun often marks covenantal confrontation, exhortation, or distinction between Israel and others. It can emphasize communal identity, responsibility, and participation in divine commands or promises.
Morphological NotesConjunction וְ + independent personal pronoun, 2nd person masculine plural (Pp2mp). Used for direct address to a group of males or a mixed group grammatically treated as masculine.
Rendering RationaleThe form וְאַתֶּם consists of the conjunction וְ ("and") prefixed to the independent second-person masculine plural pronoun אַתֶּם. The rendering preserves both the conjunctive force and the masculine plural address inherent in the morphology (Pp2mp).
