SIBI-P1 Translation H6440-35
from the face of
| Morphological Notes | Preposition מִן prefixed to noun פָּנִים (common, plural of extension) in construct state; literally "from faces of," functioning as singular in sense. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form combines the preposition מִן ("from") with the plural construct of פָּנִים ("face," "surface," "presence"), yielding "from the face of." This preserves the root idea of what is turned outward or faced toward, while reflecting the construct relationship. |
