SIBI-P1 H352-25
and strong rams
| Root | איל (ʾ-y-l) |
| Core Meanings | strength, might, prominence, sturdy support |
| Semantic Range | ram (male sheep), mighty man, chief or leader, pillar or strong support, oak or sturdy tree |
| Conceptual Significance | The 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 Notes | Conjunction וְ ("and") + noun common masculine plural absolute (אֵילִים). No pronominal suffix; plural form indicated by ִים ending. |
| Rendering Rationale | The 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. |
