shᵉʼêrîyth
A remainder, what is left over or survives after a significant loss, catastrophe, or judgment; the surviving group or portion, especially after destruction, exile, or disaster—frequently a small, residual group of people, but also used of physical materials or resources that remain after an event. In narrative and prophetic contexts, שְׁאֵרִית most often refers to the surviving portion of the Israelite population after war, disaster, or exile.

the surviving remainder
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common, feminine singular absolute with definite article (הַשְּׁאֵרִית). |
| Rendering Rationale | The definite article הַ marks it as specific ('the'), and the feminine singular noun from שאר denotes what remains or survives after loss. 'Surviving remainder' preserves the root idea of being left over after removal or destruction. |
