Morphological NotesQal active participle, masculine plural absolute, with prefixed definite article (הַ). Functions substantivally: "the ones who are ruling."
Rendering RationaleThe form is a Qal masculine plural active participle with the definite article, literally "the ones ruling." Rendering it as "the ruling men" preserves the active, ongoing sense of the participle, reflects the definite article ("the"), and communicates the masculine plural force in natural English.
