SIBI-P1 H6629-30
and wandering flock
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ + noun common gender singular absolute (collective). Though grammatically singular, it functions as a collective noun referring to multiple animals. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun צֹאן is a collective singular referring to a flock of small livestock (sheep or goats). Deriving from a root associated with migration or movement, the rendering "wandering flock" preserves the pastoral image of animals that move together for grazing. The prefixed conjunction וְ is reflected by "and," and the singular collective sense is maintained. |
