SIBI-P1 Translation H5236-01
the foreign one
| Morphological Notes | Noun, masculine singular absolute with definite article (הַ + נֵכָר). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun נֵכָר derives from the root meaning "to recognize or mark as different," denoting someone or something identified as outside or alien. The masculine singular absolute form with the definite article is rendered as "the foreign one," preserving both its nominal force and its marked otherness. |
