SIBI-P1 H5566-01
the likeness-figure
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common masculine singular absolute with prefixed definite article (הַ). No pronominal suffix. Appears in absolute form rather than construct in the given morphology. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun סֶמֶל derives from a root conveying resemblance or representation, so "likeness-figure" preserves the idea of a shaped object that represents something else. The form is masculine singular absolute with the definite article ("the"), which is reflected in the singular English rendering with the definite article retained. |
