SIBI-P1 H352-25

and strong rams

Rootאיל (ʾ-y-l)
Core Meaningsstrength, might, prominence, sturdy support
Semantic Rangeram (male sheep), mighty man, chief or leader, pillar or strong support, oak or sturdy tree
Conceptual SignificanceThe אַיִל often symbolizes strength, leadership, and sacrificial value in biblical literature. Rams play a central role in covenantal and atoning sacrifices, while the broader term reflects social and structural strength—whether in leaders, warriors, or architectural supports.
Morphological NotesConjunction וְ ("and") + noun common masculine plural absolute (אֵילִים). No pronominal suffix; plural form indicated by ִים ending.
Rendering RationaleThe noun אַיִל derives from a root conveying strength and prominence. In this masculine plural absolute form with prefixed conjunction ("and"), it refers to rams—animals emblematic of strength—thus "and strong rams" preserves both the core idea of might and the masculine plural morphology.
